IPL 2024 Squads– The Indian Premier League (IPL) will begin its 17th season on March 22, 2024. The opening match of the tournament will take place in Chennai’s MA Chidambaram Stadium between the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB).
Only the schedule for the first 21 matches has been made public due to the Lok Sabha elections. A similar strategy was used when the nation contested Lok Sabha elections in 2019. Even so, there were two portions to the IPL programme.
IPL 2024 Squads
The teams of Gujarat Titans (GT), Delhi Capitals (DC), and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will play a maximum of five matches each over the first 17 days of the 2024 Indian Premier League. On the other hand, each of the following teams will get to play four games: Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), Mumbai Indians (MI), Rajasthan Royals (RR), Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), and Punjab Kings (PBKS).
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on the other hand, will only play in three games. The IPL 2024 schedule is unique in that Vizag (Visakhapatnam) will host the Delhi Capitals’ inaugural home game, led by Rishabh Pant. The home games of other teams will take place on their own fields concurrently. Before the IPL season began, the teams were reorganised.
A few players have been sidelined by injuries throughout the competition. Some, however, opted not to participate in this season for reasons related to managing their workload or family. Additionally, a few teams switched captains. The teams have also announced the replacements for the injured or excluded players.
