IPL 2025 playoff schedule: Today the last league match will be played in IPL 2025, in which Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants will clash. RCB has already gone into the playoffs, while the Lucknow team has already been out of the final race. It has been decided that Punjab Kings will play the first qualifier match, on the other hand Mumbai Indians will have to overcome the challenge of the eliminator match. The last match of the league phase has arrived, but so far the entire schedule of the playoffs has not been revealed.

If you look at the points table, the Punjab Kings sits at the top with 19 points. At the same time, Gujarat Titans is in second place with 18 points and all 14 matches of these two teams have been completed. The fourth place is Mumbai Indians, which has 16 points and will remain in fourth place. But in today’s match, Royal Challengers Bangalore’s victory can change all the equations of the final.

Gujarat-Mumbai will increase difficulty

In the top-4, RCB is the only team with a match left. If Bengaluru defeats LSG by a big margin today, then it will become a table topper, in such a situation, the first qualifier of RCB will compete with Punjab Kings. If the first qualifier between Bengaluru-Punjab is there, then the difficulty of Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians will increase.

If RCB reaches the first qualifier, then there will be an eliminator match between Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians. In this situation, only one of the teams from Gujarat-Mumbai will be able to move forward. At the same time, the winner of the eliminator match will also have to defeat the team that loses in the qualifier 1 to go to the final. Therefore, Gujarat or Mumbai will have to register 2 wins to go to the finals.

It is certain that the Mi eliminator will play the match, but the Gujarat team will be hoping that today LSG will win the RCB, so that they reach the first qualifier.
