About IPL 2025

The IPL owner, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), announced the IPL 2025 match schedule on February 13. The Indian Premier League will begin on March 22, 2025, and run until May 25, 2025. There will be a total of 74 matches throughout the season. The first match will take place at Eden Gardens, Kolkata, where Kolkata Knight Riders, the three-time defending champions, will play against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Bettors can check live scores to stay updated on the match.

Indian Premier League History

The IPL was founded by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) after the rise of the Indian Cricket League (ICL) in 2007. The ICL was not recognized by the BCCI, and players joining the league faced lifetime bans. In September 2007, BCCI announced the Indian Premier League, a new Twenty20 competition with the first season starting in April 2008. The first teams included Chennai Super Kings, Mumbai Indians, and Kolkata Knight Riders. Throughout IPL history, the league has seen new teams join, while some were removed due to financial issues. In 2015, teams like Chennai Super Kings were suspended for a spot-fixing scandal, and new teams, Lucknow Super Giants and Gujarat Titans, joined in 2022.

Teams: Sponsors and Owners

The Tata Group is the main sponsor of the IPL tournament. They secured the rights for ₹335 crore (US$38 million) per year for the 2022 and 2023 seasons. Before Tata, Vivo was the title sponsor from 2017 to 2020. Dream11 became the sponsor in 2020. Tata is also involved with other events, like the Tata Open Maharashtra. The deal with Tata replaced Vivo’s contract, which was originally worth more. Saudi Aramco also bought rights to advertise on the Purple and Orange caps starting in 2022.

Here is the table with IPL 2025 teams, their owners, and sponsors:

What's New in This Season?

IPL 2025 brings several changes aimed at improving the competition. The retention rules now allow teams to keep between three and six players from their 2024 squad. Teams can retain up to five experienced international players and two uncapped international players. RTM cards are back, so teams can bring back players they might have released. The auction purse has increased to ₹120 crore, giving teams more money to build stronger squads. There is also a new rule where players will earn extra money based on their performance in matches. All overseas players must now register for the auction, so teams know exactly which international players are available. With these changes, IPL 2025 looks to make the season more exciting and competitive for players, teams, and viewers.
