- Watch IPL 2025 free on Tapmad (Pakistan restricted)
- Abroad? Unblock Tapmad with NordVPN (Save 70%)
- Saturday, March 22 – Sunday, May 25
The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 is once again delivering electrifying T20 cricket, with the tournament being played daily until the grand final on May 25. Cricket fans in Pakistan can watch and stream IPL games free.
The 18th edition of the IPL tournament features 10 teams, including defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders. At the time of writing however, it's the uncrowned Delhi Capitals who have started this year's campaign the strongest – they won their first three games and, at the time of writing, are this season's only undefeated team.
Last year's losing finalists Sunrisers Hyderabad cracked the second biggest IPL total ever in game 1, but have since lost all of their next fours games. Lucknow Giants and their in-form batting pair of Nicholas Pooran and Mitchell Marsh look dangerous. While Indian favorites Hardik Pandya (Mumbai Indians) and Mohammed Siraj (Gujarat Titans) have impressed with ball in hand.
Here's a quick guide to how to watch IPL 2025 live streams from anywhere and for free.
