The IPL 2025 prize money is in demand as the IPL is finally in its end stage with one remaining knockout match. The Qualifier 1 gave RCB as our finalists, and the Punjab Kings another shot at the final match. From the eliminator match, we got MI as the team that will face PBKS. The IPL 2025 prize money distribution is at arm’s length.
On 1 June 2025, Qualifier 2 will take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. This match will give us our second finalist. Punjab has been to the finals only once. If they win the upcoming match, it will be their second entry in the finals.
Regardless of the result, it’ll be the first time RCB is facing Mumbai or Punjab in the finals. Either Mumbai will win its 6th IPL title, or Punjab/RCB will win their very first title.
