Punjab Kings achieve huge feat after 11 years in IPL 2025 points table

Punjab Kings have finished at the top of the IPL 2025 points table. This marks the first time since 2014 that the Kings have topped the standings. In that season, the Kings lost against the Kolkata Knight Riders in Qualifier 1, but defeated the Chennai Super Kings in Qualifier 2 to make it to the final. However, they lost the final to KKR by three wickets.

The Kings have reached the playoffs for the first time since the 2014 season. It will be interesting to see if they can make it to the final this year. PBKS will have the home advantage as New Chandigarh will host the Qualifier 1 match between PBKS and RCB on May 29.
