IPL 2025 playoff schedule

IPL playoff records

Of the four teams, Gujarat Titans have the percentage of winning the best playoffs. GT has won two out of three playoff matches. MI also has a great record, winning eight out of 14 matches in the playoffs. However, MI has not played much in eliminators. This will be the fifth time in 18 years when Mumbai will play in eliminator. In four eliminator matches, MI has a 50% win -win record.

For Punjab Kings, this is only the third time they will be in the playoffs. PBKS has only once in the playoffs, in 2014, when he defeated Chennai Super Kings to qualify for the IPL final. In two other examples, 2008 semi -finals and 2014 PBKS in Qualifier 1.

Another traditional underchiver RCB has won 5 out of 12 matches in the playoffs. Since 2016, the RCB is not able to reach the peak. In fact, out of 10 performances in the playoffs, they have managed to reach the final only three times.

Pbks playoff records

Punjab Kings have shocked everyone in IPL 2025. PBK has 19 points, with nine wins in 14 matches. His highest points in the 2014 season came when he won 11 out of 14 matches to qualify for the playoffs and eventually reached the finals.

This time, PBK is once again closed, sealing a location in qualifier 1. Last time when PBKs arrived at qualifier 1, they made it in the final. However, he lost to Kolkata Knight Riders in Qualifier 1 and won against CSK in Qualifier 2, avenging the 2008 loss. While PBK will still need to wait for the LSG vs. RCB match in IPL 2025, so that the qualifier 1 can know his opponent, he has already defeated two potential opponents in the league stage. However, they will be worried about RCB as they have already defeated PBK in Mulanpur, where the qualifier will be on 1 29 May.

GT playoff records

This is the third appearance of Gujarat Titans in the playoffs. Under Hardik Pandya, in its inaugural season, GT removed the title in 2022. GT once again reached the final under the same captain in 2023, but the marathon decreased in CSK in the final. While 2024 was a Vipathan, GT is once again in the playoffs, making him one of the most consistent teams in recent years.

So far, GT has never played in eliminator. Both times, GT qualifiers were played in 1, one won and one lost. This time, however, if RCB wins against LSG, GT will be in eliminator, lost the opportunity to manage the top 2 finish after losing to CSK and LSG in its last two matches.

RCB playoff records

Royal Challengers Bangalore did not have the best luck in IPL playoffs. In 12 playoff matches, RCB has won only 5, losing the other 7. In the last five years, RCB has qualified for qualifier 2 only once, but lost to Rajasthan Royals in 2022. Fortunately, RCB played a qualifier 1, they won and reached the finals. If they defeat LSG in their previous league games, RCB plays PBK in qualifier 1.

However, this time, RCB may be a threat to all teams. RCB defeated PBK in Mulanpur and even won against MI in Mumbai. While he lost to GT in the league stage, Shubman will be happy to face him in the RCB playoffs, given the form of Gill & Co..

Mi playoff records

With five titles, Mumbai Indians are the most successful team in IPL 2025 playoffs. MI has the best record in the playoffs, winning 8 out of 14 matches. However, MI will play eliminator this time. Sunrisers are the only team to win the IPL title from Hyderabad Eliminator. Therefore, MI will have to repeat SRH’s 2016 success for a record 6th title.

All the IPL titles of Mi came from the top 2 finish in the league stage. But this time, he lost a chance to PBK with disadvantage. In IPL 2025, the Mi has lost to all sides in the playoffs. Hardik Pandya and the company have lost twice to Titans in Gujarat and once for RCB and PBKS. In fact, MI has not defeated any side in the playoffs in the IPL 2025 league stage.
