IPL 2025 eliminator date News

The IPL 2025 playoffs feature Punjab Kings, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), Gujarat Titans, and Mumbai Indians. Punjab Kings topped the league, facing RCB in Qualifier 1 on May 29 at Chandigarh. Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians clash in the Eliminator on May 30 at the same venue. The loser of Qualifier 1 and winner of the Eliminator will battle in Qualifier 2 on June 1, followed by the final on June 3 in Ahmedabad. Key player absences include Tim David (RCB), Jos Buttler (GT), and Marco Jansen (PBKS). Despite injuries, teams remain competitive, setting the stage for an exciting IPL finale.

The BCCI has suspended IPL 2025 due to rising India-Pakistan tensions, with only 16 matches left in the tournament. A September window has emerged as the most likely option for resumption, following India’s England and Bangladesh tours. The gap before the West Indies series provides a narrow but feasible window for completion. The situation mirrors IPL 2021, which successfully resumed post-suspension. Fans are actively searching for updates on revised fixtures, while stakeholders support the delay. With significant financial stakes involved, the BCCI is expected to finalize a new schedule soon, ensuring minimal disruption and a strong finish to IPL 2025.
