Have PBK described for the Playoffs of IPL 2025? The crucial victory of Punjab Kings against Rajasthan Royals on May 18 took them to 17 points, which is generally enough to confirm a place in the playoffs. But this result guarantees your entry? We break down the updated PBKS rating scenarios, their playoff opportunities and what they now need for a possible Top-Two final.
📌 Last update: PBKS beat RR for 24 races in Jaipur to move at 17 points and practically seal the playoff rating.
PBKS beat RR to reach the 17 -point mark
Rajasthan Royals came out all the burning weapons, breaking 89 in the power game, but the kings of Punjab still came out at the top thanks to a rotation drowning of half of half of the noise of Arpreet and the quiet death bowling bowls. Nehal Wadhera (70 of 37) and Shashank Singh (50* of 27) drove PBK to 219/5, configuring the game despite the first WICKETS.
The total sixth of more than 200 PBKs this season also coincided with an IPL record previously made by me, RCB, KKR and SRH. With the victory, Punjab Kings moved to 17 points in 12 games.
With GT beating DC later on Sunday, PBKs has officially classified for the Playoffs of IPL 2025 for the first time since 2014.

Have PBK described for the Playoffs of IPL 2025?
But have PBK still be officially described? Yes, they have done it.
If the PBK win one more game (vs. dc or mi), they will press for a end between the top two, but ideally need to win both if they lose the remaining games, and other results go against them, they could still be lost in the first two due to NRR.
In short, have PBK described? Yeah.
PBKS playoff dishes: the remaining accessories and impact
Punjab Kings now feel third on the table with 17 points and a NRR of +0.376 and are up to the playoffs. This is what is coming:
Q
A victory in any game will take them to 19 points.
PBKS TOP TWO FINISHES: Is it possible?
Punjab finish possibilities are currently at 34.8%. To reach the first two, they will probably need: win both remaining games (to end at 21 points), and expect one or both of RCB and GT to lose at least one game
NRR Hurdle: Its current NRR of +0.376 is significantly behind me (+1.156), RCB (+0.482) and GT (+0.793), which means that mass victories are needed to overcome this gap.

Have you described PBK? Final word
They have done almost everything good. An abrasing batting effort, a turn strangler directed by Harpreet Brar (4-0-22-3), and some key victories at crucial moments have put PBK in the playoffs for the first time since 2014.
So, the response to “Do you have qualified PBK for IPL 2025 playoffs?” It is officially yes, and they are even in sight of the first two.
Two more victories will solve it for PBK as one of the first two in the greatest probability.
