M = matches, W = wins, L = losses, NR = no result, Pts = points, NRR = net run rate. These are completed league standings, not the order of finish in the knockout stage. Sort a numeric column to compare teams; sort Pos to restore the original order.

A win contributes two points and a no result one. The saved records are checked against those totals. Net run rate compares aggregate scoring and conceding rates; it is not an average of individual match NRR values. The NRR calculator explains the arithmetic and all-out rule. Historical playing-condition documents have not been independently checked for every year, so this archive preserves the source's ranking.

Wins before scoring balance

IPL 2015 final standings explained

Mumbai, Bangalore and Rajasthan all finished on 16 points, but their records were not identical. Mumbai had eight wins; Bangalore and Rajasthan had seven wins and two no results each. Mumbai consequently stood second despite a negative NRR, while Bangalore's +1.037 was the best in the competition. Chennai led with 18 points and Kolkata missed the top four on 15. The final in Kolkata again brought Chennai and Mumbai together, and Mumbai won by 41 runs. Andre Russell received the season award. Kings XI Punjab ended with six points and −1.436. This year is especially useful when explaining why sorting a table solely by NRR does not reproduce the official standings.

The qualification boundary was between Rajasthan Royals, fourth on 16 points, and Kolkata Knight Riders, fifth on 15. The gap was 1 point, equivalent to 0.5 wins in the points system. Kings XI Punjab finished at the foot of the table with 6 points from 14 matches.

Bars compare points only. The table retains wins and NRR so equal-height bars do not conceal the ranking criteria.

Against Chennai Super Kings · Eden Gardens, Kolkata

Mumbai Indians entered the knockout stage from league position 2, with 16 points. Chennai Super Kings had finished 1 in the league, with 18 points. The final result is recorded separately because knockout wins are not added to the league standings shown above. The top-four league positions identify the qualifying teams; they should not be read as an interpretation of the final result.

Andre Russell

This is the season award, not the final's Player of the Match. It also differs from the Orange Cap for most runs and Purple Cap for most wickets. Browse the winners archive to compare team titles and individual season honours.

Historical identities

Teams of 2015

The 2015 field contained 8 teams. This archive uses the names from that season, including earlier franchise identities where applicable. Renaming a team in a modern feed does not rewrite an old season: Delhi Daredevils, Kings XI Punjab and Royal Challengers Bangalore are retained in the appropriate years. Gujarat Lions and Gujarat Titans are not the same historical entry. The current IPL teams guide covers today's names, grounds and leadership.

Royal Challengers Bangalore had the highest league NRR at +1.037, finishing in position 3. That statistic is shown alongside the full field rather than treated as an alternative title. Team counts also matter: compare the number of matches played before treating a points total as equivalent across two different seasons.

Previous and next season

A different season. A different story.

Move back one year to compare the previous league order, or forward one year to see the next completed season. The archive keeps league results separate from title winners. For a broader comparison, the main table offers a season selector covering 2008–2026, while the winners page follows the finals and champions.

The 2015 table in perspective

Chennai Super Kings led the league with 18 points; Mumbai Indians won the championship. The top-four boundary was 16 points, but that figure is an observed result for this season, not a guaranteed qualification rule for another year. Use the recorded wins, no results and NRR together when comparing equal-points teams.
