IPL 2020: Full Schedule, Team Squads, When And Where To Watch, Online Bookings

The 13th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is round the corner and is all set to be bigger and grand than earlier seasons. So much so, that the stakes of the cash-rich league which will begin on March 29 are on par to that of the ICC T20 World Cup which will follow later this year in Australia.

Defending Champions Mumbai Indians will lock horns MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings in the tournament opener at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. This edition will see the tournament spread over 50 days instead of 44 days. All the six double-headers will take place on Sundays, barring the opening game on March 29, and the last league clash to be held on May 17th.
