The four play-off spots in the 2025 Indian Premier League are now decided.

Gujarat Titans, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Punjab Kings and Mumbai Indians are through to the knockouts, but none know her final position and what game they will play in.

Here's what still needs to decided in the final stretch of group games...

IPL table as it stands

Each team plays 14 matches in the IPL group stage with the top four reaching the play-offs. Each win is worth two points.

IPL qualification permutations

Gujarat Titans (qualified)

Position: First Played: 13 Points: 18 Maximum points: 20

Remaining fixtures: Chennai Super Kings (h)

Gujarat Titans are guaranteed a play-off spot.

They can seal a place in the top two with a win against Chennai Super Kings in their final game.

Punjab Kings (qualified)

Position: Second Played: 12 Points: 17 Maximum points: 21

Remaining fixtures: Delhi Capitals (h), Mumbai Indians (h)

Punjab sealed their place in the play-offs on Sunday with victory over Rajasthan combined with Delhi's defeat by Gujarat.

Two wins would secure a place in the top two, although one may be enough if they can maintain their superior net run-rate.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (qualified)

Position: Third Played: 13 Points: 17 Maximum points: 19

Remaining fixtures: Lucknow Super Giants (a)

RCB qualified for the play-offs after their match against Kolkata Knight Riders on 17 May was abandoned because of rain.

They can still reach the top two, but likely require a win and one of the two teams ahead of them to fall to a defeat.

Mumbai Indians (qualified)

Position: Fourth Played: 13 Points: 16 Maximum points: 18

Remaining fixtures: Punjab Kings (a)

Mumbai secured their play-off spot with victory over Delhi Capitals on Wednesday.

They could still finish in the top two but need to win their final game and then hope Royal Challengers Bengaluru or Gujarat Titans slip up.

How do IPL play-offs work?

29 May: Qualifier 1 - first v second

30 May: Eliminator - third v fourth

1 June: Qualifier 2 - loser of Qualifier 1 v winner of Eliminator

3 June: Final - winner of Qualifier 1 v winner of Qualifier 2
