The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 is about to conclude after more than two long months, with the final match between the Punjab Kings and the Royal Challengers Bengaluru taking place at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
Qualifier 1 saw both teams play each other, with RCB winning. However, after defeating the Mumbai Indians in Qualifier 2, PBKS will now play RCB again in the Grand Final on Tuesday, June 3, in Ahmedabad. Two teams full of confidence will engage in an exciting duel. Since neither of the two teams has ever won an IPL championship, we will also have a first-time winner.
Next, we examine the prize money awarded to the tournament’s champion, as well as to the runners-up, Orange and Purple Cap holders, and the Most Valuable Player (MVP) recipient.
Although the prize money has not been confirmed officially, it has been rumoured that the winning team would receive a sizable payout that will be split among all of their teammates and support personnel. A sizable sum will be given to the players and staff, as well as to the squad that finishes in second place.
The Kolkata Knight Riders, the victorious team from the previous year, were awarded a substantial 20 crores in prize money. Although the current season's payout has not been disclosed, it is anticipated that the victorious team in the 2025 Indian Premier League will receive the same amount.
For those who are unaware, since 2022, the winning prize has remained constant. Therefore, it is anticipated that the sum will not change this year either. Similarly, the runner-up was awarded Rs 13 crores in the previous season, and that is expected to remain the same as well. Teams to finish third and fourth would be receiving seven and six & a half crores each, respectively.
Yes, trophies are the main attraction. However, personal accomplishments are also important. The season's highest run scorer and wicket-taker receive the Orange and Purple Caps, which come with recognition and a respectable salary.
The Orange Cap, Purple Cap, and Most Valuable Player (MVP) will each receive 10 lakhs for their records. The Orange Cap is expected to stay with Sai Sudharsan, the Purple Cap with Prasidh Krishna and the MVP for the season to be Suryakumar Yadav.
