With the Indian Premier League 2025 final fast approaching, all eyes are now on the venue that will host the grand event. Originally scheduled to be held at Eden Gardens in Kolkata, the final is now shifted to Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium.
It is due to persistent rain forecasts in West Bengal during early June. This will mark the third time that Narendra Modi Stadium hosts an IPL final -- putting it alongside Chennai’s Chepauk Stadium as the joint-most final host in IPL history.
