Mumbai indians have a chance to top the points table of the 2025 IPL. The help provided by chennai Super Kings has been the main reason for that. That is, mumbai indians have, in a way, received help from their arch-rivals chennai Super Kings. While mumbai indians were at the bottom of the points table at the beginning of this year, they now have a chance to top the league table at the end of the league round. Let's see how this will happen. The teams currently in the top four places in the 2025 IPL points table are gujarat Titans, punjab Kings, royal challengers Bangalore, and mumbai Indians. All four teams have advanced to the play-off round. However, the teams in the top two places will get another chance even if they lose in the first qualifier (Qualifier 1) in the play-off round.
 Thus, there is a competition between these four teams to grab the top two spots. Currently, gujarat Titans is at the top with 18 points. The team has completed all its matches. punjab Kings and mumbai indians will face each other next. punjab Kings have 17 points and mumbai indians have 16 points. The team that wins this match will move up to the top two spots. If punjab Kings defeat mumbai indians, they will secure a spot in the top two spots with 19 points. Similarly, if mumbai indians defeat punjab Kings, they will get 18 points. Also, due to the higher net run rate, they will overtake gujarat Titans and grab the top spot. Next, royal challengers Bangalore will play against lucknow Super Giants. If royal challengers Bangalore wins that match, they will move up to the top two spots with 19 points. If mumbai indians are at the top with 18 points, then royal challengers Bangalore will overtake mumbai with 19 points.

 Anyway, if mumbai indians and royal challengers Bangalore win their last matches, they will secure the top two spots. Moreover, if royal challengers Bangalore loses, mumbai indians will secure the top spot by defeating Punjab. The reason why these two teams got the chance to grab the top spot is because of chennai Super Kings. It is because the chennai Super Kings defeated gujarat Titans that mumbai indians and royal challengers Bangalore have an easy chance to be in the top two spots.
