IPL 2025 Final Table: A Report Card for All Ten Teams
Punjab topped the league, RCB won the trophy and Chennai finished last for the first time. How every team's season went.
The 18th IPL season had a bit of everything: a first title for Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Punjab Kings on top of the table, a 14-year-old hitting a hundred and the five-time champions from Chennai finishing last. It was also interrupted. The league was paused for a week in May because of military tensions between India and Pakistan, resumed on 17 May and finished with the final on 3 June.
Here is how the league stage ended, and how each team's season went.
The final table
| # | Team | W | L | NR | Pts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | PBKS Punjab Kings | 9 | 4 | 1 | 19 |
| 2 | RCB Royal Challengers Bengaluru | 9 | 4 | 1 | 19 |
| 3 | GT Gujarat Titans | 9 | 5 | 0 | 18 |
| 4 | MI Mumbai Indians | 8 | 6 | 0 | 16 |
| 5 | DC Delhi Capitals | 7 | 6 | 1 | 15 |
| 6 | SRH Sunrisers Hyderabad | 6 | 7 | 1 | 13 |
| 7 | LSG Lucknow Super Giants | 6 | 8 | 0 | 12 |
| 8 | KKR Kolkata Knight Riders | 5 | 7 | 2 | 12 |
| 9 | RR Rajasthan Royals | 4 | 10 | 0 | 8 |
| 10 | CSK Chennai Super Kings | 4 | 10 | 0 | 8 |
Punjab finished above RCB, and Rajasthan above Chennai, on net run rate. Three matches ended with no result, which is why five teams have points from washouts.
The top four
1. Punjab Kings. Their best league season since 2014. With Shreyas Iyer as captain and Ricky Ponting as coach, Punjab topped the table, lost Qualifier 1 to RCB, then beat Mumbai in Qualifier 2 with Iyer making 87 not out. They lost the final by six runs.
2. Royal Challengers Bengaluru (champions). Rajat Patidar's first season as captain ended with the trophy. RCB beat Punjab twice in the playoffs: comfortably in Qualifier 1, bowling them out for 101, and narrowly in the final, where Krunal Pandya was player of the match. The celebrations turned to grief the next day, when a crowd crush outside the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru killed 11 people.
3. Gujarat Titans. The season's individual stars came from Gujarat: Sai Sudharsan won the Orange Cap and Prasidh Krishna the Purple Cap. Gujarat led the table for much of the season but lost their last two league games, dropped to third and went out to Mumbai in the Eliminator.
4. Mumbai Indians. Mumbai lost four of their first five matches, then won six in a row to climb into the playoffs. Suryakumar Yadav was named the season's Most Valuable Player. They beat Gujarat in the Eliminator before losing to Punjab.
The other six
5. Delhi Capitals. Delhi won their first four matches under new captain Axar Patel, with KL Rahul in the batting order, but could not keep it going and missed out on the top four.
6. Sunrisers Hyderabad. Sunrisers opened with 286 for 6 against Rajasthan, with Ishan Kishan making a hundred on his debut for the team, and Abhishek Sharma later hit 141 to chase down 246 against Punjab. The bowling never matched the batting, and they finished sixth.
7. Lucknow Super Giants. The record ₹27 crore signing Rishabh Pant struggled for most of the season before hitting a hundred in the final league match. Lucknow finished seventh.
8. Kolkata Knight Riders. The defending champions never found their 2024 form. Two of their matches were washed out, and they finished eighth.
9. Rajasthan Royals. A difficult season with only four wins, but it produced the moment of the year: 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi's 35-ball hundred against Gujarat.
10. Chennai Super Kings. For the first time, Chennai finished bottom of the table. Ruturaj Gaikwad was ruled out by an elbow injury early in the season, and MS Dhoni took over as captain again.
Stats in this chapter are correct to the end of the 2025 IPL season.
