IPL 2024: The 17th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is starting from 22 March 2024. The tournament will start with the match between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
Due to the Lok Sabha elections, the schedule of only the first 21 matches has been released. When Lok Sabha elections were held in the country in 2019, a similar approach was adopted. Even then the IPL schedule came in two parts.
During the first 17 days of IPL 2024, the teams of Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), Delhi Capitals (DC) and Gujarat Titans (GT) will play a maximum of 5 matches each. Whereas Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), Mumbai Indians (MI), Rajasthan Royals (RR), Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) will get to play four matches each. Whereas Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will participate in only three matches.
The special thing about the IPL 2024 schedule is that Rishabh Pant’s Delhi Capitals will play its opening home match in Vizag (Visakhapatnam). At the same time, the home matches of other teams are going to be held on their home grounds. There has been a reshuffle in the teams before the start of IPL 2024.
Some players have been out of the tournament due to injury. While some decided to withdraw from this season due to family reasons or workload management. Some teams also changed their captains. Replacement of injured/excluded players has also been announced by the teams.
