Guwahati Royals Target ₹5 Million Title in Upcoming APL Final

The Guwahati Royals, fresh from a strong league campaign, are now focused on the APL final where the winning side will pocket a prize of five million rupees. Their opponent, yet to be decided after Friday’s semi‑finals, will also be keen to secure the 2.5‑million‑rupee runner‑up reward.

The top four teams – Guwahati Royals, Debragarh Warriors, Barak Legends and Barpeta Braves – have earned their places after navigating a tightly contested round‑robin schedule. The remaining four franchises fell short of qualification and exited the tournament.

The final is slated for 23 August at Barsapara Cricket Stadium, following a brief rest day. The APL’s 23‑day itinerary packs 43 matches, providing a continuous showcase for budding talent and a scouting ground for IPL franchises.

With a substantial cash prize on the line, the stakes are higher than ever, and the finalists will compete not only for the trophy but also for the financial boost that could transform their squads ahead of next season.
