Rajeev shukla statement: The final match of the Indian Premier League 2025 was to be held at the Eden Gardens Stadium in Kolkata, but now the final match between Bengaluru and Punjab Kings is going to be held at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Now on this, BCCI Vice President Rajiv Shukla said on the position of the IPL final match, “No politics should be seen in the matches which have been shifted, this decision has not been taken with any political spirit.
If the IPL schedule was not avoided for a week, the final would have been in Kolkata and the playoff in Hyderabad. When the schedule was changed, the weather conditions were seen and the broadcaster firmly put that the weather forecast of Kolkata is bad in those days and the match could be washed away in those days, so the match should be at a place where the possibility of rain is less. All places were seen and according to the weather reports, Chandigarh and Ahmedabad had the lowest expectation of rain. So the match was shifted. Rajiv Shukla further said that it is not that it is just a matter of Kolkata, matches were shifted from Hyderabad too, it has happened before. There is no political purpose behind this. “
