The 2025 season of the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) will be remembered as the year the script was rewritten. For the first time in league history, the Idream Tiruppur Tamizhans rose from being perennial underachievers to becoming the undisputed champions of Tamil Nadu.
The points table tells the story of this incredible journey. It was a season where consistency was rewarded, and where the Net Run Rate (NRR) played a cruel role in deciding the fate of the mid table teams. The league stage was fiercely competitive, with the race for the top four going down to the very last double header weekend.
