Ahmedabad to Host IPL 2025 Final on June 3

BCCI shifts final from Kolkata due to weather concerns. The IPL 2025 final will now be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on June 3. The decision came after a series of meetings held by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Tuesday. The final was originally scheduled to take place in Kolkata but was moved due to weather risks.

Qualifier 2 Also in Ahmedabad

Ahmedabad will not just host the final. It will also stage Qualifier 2 on June 1. This gives the venue two of the most crucial games of the tournament. The decision was based on the need to avoid rain disruptions, which are expected in eastern India around that time.

The first two playoff games—Qualifier 1 and the Eliminator—are likely to be played at Mullanpur (New Chandigarh) on May 29 and May 30. These northern cities have lower chances of rain compared to Kolkata and other eastern cities.

BCCI Chooses Weather Over Tradition

Kolkata has a strong cricketing tradition and was in line to host the final. But with the onset of the monsoon season, BCCI decided not to take any risks. Ahmedabad, with its world-class stadium and dry climate in early June, emerged as the best alternative.

More details on playoff schedules and ticket sales are expected soon. IPL fans now look forward to a thrilling end to the season in India’s biggest cricket stadium.

As the IPL 2025 league stage draws to a close, the battle for the final playoff spot has become intense. Gujarat Titans (GT), Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), and Punjab Kings (PBKS) have already sealed their places in the top four. Now, multiple teams are in contention for the last remaining berth, with net run rate and final league match results set to play a crucial role. The coming days promise high drama as teams fight for survival and a shot at the title.
