The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 season is set to get underway on March 28, with the final scheduled on May 31. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced the schedule for the tournament on March 11.
The announcement was delayed owing to the tournament’s clash with assembly elections in Assam, West Bengal and Tamil Nadu. While Kolkata (in West Bengal) and Chennai (in Tamil Nadu) are the bases for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) respectively, Guwahati (in Assam) is the second venue for Rajasthan Royals (RR).
One of the other reasons behind the delay was the uncertainty over the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. The venue has not hosted any top-flight cricket ever since the tragic stampede during Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s 2025 victory parade, which claimed 11 lives and left several injured. However, the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) received clearance after extensive discussions with RCB officials.
The tournament opener will be played between defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and five-time winners Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Chinnaswamy on March 28. The Lucknow Super Giants, meanwhile, will play their first match on April 01 against Delhi Capitals at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Stadium in Lucknow.
