IPL Schedule 2023: Get ready for the most-awaited event in franchise cricket as the 16th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) kicks off on Friday, March 31. The opening match of the highly anticipated T20 league will see the reigning champions, Gujarat Titans, take on Chennai Super Kings at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Fans are in for a treat as 70 league matches, including 18 double headers, will be played across 12 venues. The final match of the tournament will take place on Sunday, May 28, at the same venue, the Narendra Modi Stadium.
This year’s IPL will be split into two groups, with Mumbai Indians, Kolkata Knight Riders, Rajasthan Royals, Delhi Capitals, and Lucknow Super Giants in Group A, while Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad, Royal Challengers Bangalore, Punjab Kings, and Gujarat Titans will be in Group B. Each team will play seven home and seven away games during the league stage, with the last league match scheduled for May 21. With several exciting matchups and fierce rivalries, the IPL promises to be a thrilling extravaganza for cricket enthusiasts and fans alike.
The upcoming IPL 2023 season promises to be an exciting and enthralling experience, especially with the introduction of the ‘impact player’. This new rule could potentially change the game, where franchises have to name four substitutes (all Indians) before the toss and are only allowed to use one player during the game, irrespective of the circumstances.
After a fiercely competitive mini-auction in December, the teams are now all set to take on each other on the field, with all ten franchises fighting to claim the coveted IPL trophy. The tournament will commence on March 31, with the first match between the defending champions Gujarat Titans and Chennai Super Kings at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
While Gujarat Titans will be looking to defend their title, Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings will be aiming to reclaim their former glory, after a disappointing 2022 season. It is sure to be an exhilarating season filled with action and excitement.
