IPL Points Table explained
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) enter the 18th edition of the Indian Premier League as the defending champions, having defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in last year’s final. This season brings fresh excitement, with all 10 teams undergoing significant changes after the tri-yearly mega auction held in December 2024.
The IPL 2025 Points Table is a dynamic ranking system that tracks the progress of the ten teams throughout the tournament. Teams earn 2 points for a win, 1 point for a tie or no result, and 0 points for a loss. The teams are ranked based on points earned. If teams have the same number of points, the tie-breaker is, in order: most wins, higher net run rate (NRR), more wickets taken per fair ball bowled, and finally, drawing lots. The top four teams in the points table qualify for the playoffs 21.
The top two teams play in Qualifier 1, and the winner advances to the final. The third and fourth-placed teams compete in an Eliminator 1. The loser of Qualifier 1 then plays the winner of the Eliminator in Qualifier 2, with the winner of that match also advancing to the final. The points table is updated after each match, reflecting the latest team standings and rankings.
