The final match of IPL 2025 will be played at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on June 3. This decision was taken in the BCCI meeting held on Tuesday, May 20.
BCCI Secretary Devjit Saikia said that Ahmedabad will host the Qualifier-2 match and the Grand Final of IPL 2025. While the first qualifier and the eliminator will be played at the PCA Stadium in New Chandigarh. The main consideration for the BCCI in selecting these venues was the weather conditions, as the rainy season is approaching the country.
The additional time scheduled for IPL 2025 matches has been increased by one hour. There will be an additional waiting period of 120 minutes for all IPL matches from May 20. Earlier, this period was only one hour and the BCCI has implemented the changes in the Playing Conditions with immediate effect. After this decision, the cutoff time for a 5-over match will be 11.30 pm IST instead of 10.30 pm. This rule will remain in place only till IPL 2025.
Due to rain in South India, a BCCI match has had to be changed. The match between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Sunrisers Hyderabad scheduled to be played on May 23 will be played at Ekana Stadium in Lucknow instead of Chinnaswamy Stadium. This decision has been taken after a yellow alert was issued in Bengaluru.
Talking about the IPL points table, Gujarat Titans are at the top of the table with 18 points after winning 9 matches out of 12 matches. RCB has won 8 matches out of 12 and is at the second position with 17 points. Along with this, Punjab has also shown a great game and remains at the third position with 17 points. Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians will face each other for the fourth position. This match is to be played on the 21st at Wankhede in Mumbai.
