The 2025 Indian Premier League (also known as IPL 18 and branded as TATA IPL 2025) will the 18th edition of the Indian Premier League, a franchise Twenty20 cricket league in India, organized by the Board of Control for Cricket in India. The tournament will feature ten teams competing in 84 matches. It will be held across 13 cities in India, with Kolkata hosting the opening ceremony and the final. Kolkata Knight Riders are the defending champions, having won their third title during the previous season after beating Sunrisers Hyderabad.[1]
Format
The format is as 2022, unlike 2023, with changes in group order. Each team will be playing twice against the teams in their group, against the team in the same row in the other group, and once against the remaining four teams in the other group.[2][3] After the group stage, the top four teams based on aggregate points qualified for the playoffs. In this stage, the top two teams compete with each other (in a match titled "Qualifier 1"), as do the remaining two teams (in a match titled "Eliminator"). While the winner of Qualifier 1 directly qualified for the final match, the losing team has another chance to qualify for the final match by competing against the winning team of the Eliminator match (in a match titled "Qualifier 2"). The winner of this subsequent Qualifier 2 match will move on to the final match. The team that wins the final match will be crowned the Indian Premier League winners.[4]
