Here’s how things looked last year. 2023 winners Chennai Super Kings faced Royal Challengers Bangalore in the first match of the IPL 2024 on Friday, March 22 and this was followed by a double-header weekend on which all the remaining eight teams were in action.
Punjab Kings play Delhi Capitals while Kolkata Knight Riders took on Sunrisers Hyderabad on Saturday. This was followed by Rajasthan Royals going head to head against Lucknow Supergiants before the 2023 runner-up Gujarat Titans hosted Mumbai Indians.
IPL Format
After establishing that the IPL 2022 will include ten teams, the BCCI reintroduced the IPL 2011 playing format. The IPL 2023 ran for 58 days, from April 1st to May 28th, including four playoff matches, will be played. Here are the key elements of this format:
- First, the ten teams are divided into two groups of five.
- Then, a random draw was used to determine the groups and who plays whom across the groups once and twice.
- Each team plays 14 games in the group stage, facing the other four teams in their group twice, four teams from the other group once, and the remaining team.
- A team that wins a match receives two points. There will be no points awarded to the losing team. In the event of a tie or a no-result, both teams will receive one point.
- The top four teams progress to the playoffs.
Opening Round: The buzz generated around the opening round of fixtures is gaining momentum, and the talk amongst the fans is increasing every day. So let’s look at those fixtures and get tongues wagging even further.
Without a doubt, everyone has their eyes on the opening fixture as Chennai Super Kings look to exert their dominance over Royal Challengers Bangalore.
Will Bangalore gain revenge? Or will they believe they cannot defeat the mighty Super Kings?
Looking elsewhere, my highlight will be Mumbai Indians taking on Gujarat Titans.
Gujarat were forced to give Hardik Pandya away to Mumbai but more vitally, the Indians also forced Rohit Sharma to relinquish his captaincy. It was an interesting turn of events and all eyes will be on how Hardik’s Mumbai Indians now goes. The schedule of IPL 2024 is placed above.
