The IPL began in 2008 and remains the most famous T20 cricket league worldwide. Teams play their eighteenth season in 2025 across India. The tournament ends with the finals on June 3rd at the Ahmedabad stadium. The four top teams battle through playoff matches before reaching the championship game. Cricket fans watch these knockout rounds with great excitement.

Teams earn playoff spots based on regular-season performance and points earned. The first and second-place teams face each other during Qualifier 1 matches. The third- and fourth-place teams play an elimination match on the same weekend. Winners advance to later rounds, and losers go home for the season. These matches decide which two teams meet for the championship trophy.

Punjab Kings finished first and earned a direct path to Qualifier 1 during May. Mumbai Indians landed fourth place and must survive the elimination round first. Gujarat Titans and Royal Challengers Bangalore fight for the third playoff position. The winner of Qualifier 1 waits for their opponent from Qualifier 2. All playoff games happen at the New Chandigarh and Ahmedabad venues during late May and early June.
