The 18th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL), that is, IPL 2025, came to an abrupt halt on Friday after BCCI secretary Devakjit Sakia informed that the tournament has been suspended for one week with immediate effect due to the ongoing conflict between India and Pakistan.
There are still 16 matches left in IPL 2025, including 12 league matches and four playoff matches. But even if the resumption of the tournament is delayed, we can be positive that fans will have themselves IPL 2025 champions, as earlier back in 2021 also BCCI suspended IPL 2021 due to a COVID outbreak but was able to conclude it at a later time.
Notably, all the results of so far completed matches of the season will be accounted for when the event resumes. So, as of Friday, May 9, how does the IPL 2025 points table look and what will be the playoff qualification scenario for all teams when they return to the field? Take a look.
