Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 Schedule, Match List, Venues and More
TATA IPL 2024 has commenced on March 22, with the season opener between Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challenger Bangalore.
The first match of the season, Chennai Super Kings vs Royal Challengers Bangalore (CSK vs RCB), was held at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chepauk, Chennai.
This season, we will witness a new era with all the old and best ones leaving the captaincy, including MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma. While the captaincy of CSK is handed over to Ruturaj Gaikwad, the Mumbai Indians will play under the captaincy of Hardik Pandya, who was earlier the captain of the Gujarat Titans. After his transfer to the Mumbai Indians, Shubhman Gill has been given the reign of captaincy, becoming the youngest captain of this season. You could say IPL is not the same anymore. Also, to clear up your confusion, Shikhar Dhawan is still the captain of the Punjab Kings but missed the IPL 2024 captain’s photoshoot, and Jitesh Sharma, vice captain of PBKS, attended the photoshoot in his place.
Let’s not forget the deadly car accident of Rishabh Pant and his long journey of recovery. In his absence, David Warner was named the captain of DC, but now Rishabh is all set to make his comeback as the captain of the Delhi Capitals again.
As for Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer fans, gear up to watch your favorites, as IPL will be the only match they are going to play this year after BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India) terminated their contracts.
