IPL 2025 Playoff Scenario: Kolkata Eliminated, Gujarat Can Qualify Today
Sports Desk | May 16, 2025
With 58 league matches completed, the IPL 2025 points table is heating up. Four teams are eliminated, but no team has officially qualified for the playoffs yet, making the final 12 matches crucial.
Kolkata Knight Riders Eliminated
The rain-affected match between RCB and KKR at Chinnaswamy Stadium resulted in both teams sharing 1 point. With just 12 points from 13 games, KKR is now out of the playoff race. Even with a win in their final match, they can only reach 14 points.
RCB on Top, Close to Qualification
RCB now leads the table with 17 points from 11 matches. A win in any of their last 2 games will confirm a playoff berth. If they win both, they’re likely to finish in the top two.
Punjab’s Crucial Match Today
Punjab Kings (PBKS) play Rajasthan today. With 15 points, a win would push PBKS to second place. Losing today would mean they need two wins from their last two matches (against Delhi and Mumbai), both still in contention.
Rajasthan’s Spoiler Role
Rajasthan Royals, with only 6 points from 12 matches, are already eliminated. However, a win against Punjab could spoil PBKS’s playoff chances. If RR wins, RCB will automatically qualify for the playoffs.
Gujarat Titans Can Qualify Today
Gujarat Titans (GT), with 16 points from 11 matches, face Delhi Capitals. A win today makes GT the first team to qualify. To finish in the top-2, GT must win all three remaining matches.
Delhi Capitals Need a Comeback
DC stands fifth with 13 points from 11 matches. A win today pushes them to third place. A loss would require them to win both remaining games to stay in the race.
