The Indian Premier League 2025 edition is in full swing and the tournament enters life when we enter the second half.
We already had a handful of close games and the first super over the tournament to see Delhi Capitals win the IPL classic against Rajasthan Royals.
With a tournament that is now in its second phase, let’s see who is on UP and what players and teams are fighting.
Who went up?
Nicholas Pooran (Lucknow Super Giants)

The most important points of the Indian Premier League match between Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals.
Nicholas Pooran has long been at the top of the T20 batter, but this IPL has moved the game to the next level. He suggests manual charts and does not touch his striking rate to get there – currently costs a stunning 208.
What stands out is that the score incredibly fast score with very healthy technique and relies on timing rather than gross power, unlike many T20 doughs.
It is no coincidence that his rise in the form came after he was pushed up the order 3 – dispelled the myth that he was just a finisher who should be saved for the other half of the shifts.
In the T20 cricket, you have to give the best doughs as many balls as possible, it is a complete waste that will save them on the last 10 breaks.
Shreyas Iyer (Pandjab Kings)

Main points of the IPL match between Pandjab riders and Kolkata Knight riders
The eye was brought up when the champions of Kolkata champions allowed their captain to go to the pandjab, and I am sure that the knight riders are already regretting this decision.
Iyer looked in a stunning form for the king, and under his leadership it seems to have a great chance for the first time in 11 years.
When it is in full swing, it is a pleasure to watch, an instinctive dough that causes scoring to look quickly effortlessly. If the second half of his season is as good as the first half, the challenges of memory of the Indian T20 will only be louder.
Noor Ahmad (Chennai Super Kings)
On the combat side of CSK was noor revelation. Twenty -year -old left shoulder wrist holds a purple cap and has completely climbed his more respected Afghan team Rashid Khan.
It is not a big spinner balls, but bowls with such a pace and a fine variation that any move is very difficult for the dough. I am not sure that he will remain on the top of the goal list, but his shares have already increased significantly in just seven matches.

The most important of the IPL match between Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders.
Jofra Archer (Rajasthan Royals)
After the terrible start of the competition, where he broke the records for all incorrect reasons, as Archer approached his fast and furious best in the last five matches.
They are not just statistics, but who got out and the way he has them. SHUBMAN GILL, Shreyas Iyer, Rachin Ravindra and Young Sensation Priyansh Arya were all released with absolute beauties to get Rajasthan to fly the ball with the ball.
Who is fighting?
Rohit Sharma (Indians of Bombai)
Rohit can’t buy a run at the moment and looks far from his game. In a few days he will be 38 years old and inevitable questions about whether he is done in this format.
There is no doubt that he looks slowly and slowly to catch up with the pace of the game, but I wouldn’t write it yet.
He left them from the T20 International and I would not be surprised if he played at least a few more IPL seasons. He just needs a score to calm the noise.

They emphasize the IPL match between the Indians in Mumbai and Delhi by the capital cities.
RISHABH PANT (LUCKNOW SUPER GIANTS)
The most expensive signature in the IPL auction is its price mark. It is a kind of player who can regularly walk through slim spots due to its high -risk approach to launching, so I always thought it would be a dubious decision to sort out Lucknow’s budget.
Fortunately, for Pant, Pooran and Mitchell Marsh, they lifted slack, but LSG owners have high expectations, and the bad season could even see it in another auction.
Rashid Khan (Gujarat Titans)
Perhaps the most surprising decline in the form came from Rashid. For many years he was in the IPL trump card, but suddenly he seemed to lose a little zipper and fraud to make the T20 the best pitcher in the world.
Do they chase you for easier to choose?
It seems that the old factor of fear has left, but it would still be a shock if it did not work better in the second half of the season.

The most important winnings of the six goals of Delhi Capitals over Royal Challengers Bengalur in Premier League.
Chennai Super Kings
The most successful team in the history of IPL seems to be aimed at the second group in a row.
They were in this situation before and returned very strongly when the pressure was turned on, but it just feels a little different.
The launch looks insufficient and now the captain is Ruturaj Gaikwad for the season. Mrs. Dhoni is back at the helm as concerned about his posts with a bat can be one of his best success in IPL to play -off to play -off.
