IPL Points Table 2025 after last match result CSK vs PBKS

NEW DELHI: The IPL 2026 points table is beginning to take shape, with early momentum already separating the frontrunners from the struggling sides. Punjab Kings have made a strong statement at the top, winning both their matches and looking like a well-balanced unit.

Their back-to-back victories have given them four points and a healthy net run rate, putting them firmly in control early in the tournament.Just behind them, Rajasthan Royals, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Delhi Capitals, and Mumbai Indians have all started positively with one win each.

Rajasthan, in particular, stand out with a massive net run rate boost after a dominant performance, while the others will look to build consistency as the season progresses.Sunrisers Hyderabad sit mid-table with one win and one loss, showing flashes of promise but still searching for stability. Their net run rate keeps them competitive for now, but they will need more wins soon to stay in the race.At the bottom half, Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants have both lost their opening games and are yet to get points on the board. However, with only one match played each, there is still plenty of time for a turnaround.

Kolkata Knight Riders and Chennai Super Kings are under early pressure, having lost both their matches. CSK, in particular, have struggled with form and balance, reflected in their poor net run rate, while KKR will need quick fixes to avoid falling further behind.With the tournament still in its early stages, the table is expected to shift rapidly as teams find their rhythm.
