IPL 2025 Brings a New Tradition with the Golden Badge

The Indian Premier League will have a new tradition from the 2025 season. The champions of the previous season will have a golden badge on their jerseys, which will represent their status as winners of the last season.

Kolkata Knight Riders, being the winners of the IPL in 2024, will be the first to wear this unique badge in the league. This action gives more prestige to the title and provides the champions with a visible badge of distinction on the pitch.

The addition of the golden badge introduces a new aspect to the league, and the championship win becomes even more meaningful. It also provides an incentive for teams to retain their title, as they will get to wear the badge in the next season.
