IPL 2021: The stage is set for another exciting season of the Indian Premier League 2021. The BCCI announced the schedule for the entire season on Sunday and the season is slated to kick off from April 9th with the defending champions Mumbai Indians taking on Royal Challengers Bangalore in Chennai. The matches will take place at five venues in India – Chennai, Mumbai, Delhi, Ahmedabad, and Bangalore. The final of the tournament will be played in Ahmedabad on May 29th.

The world’s largest cricket stadium – Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad – will host the playoffs as well as the final on May 30. The newly-built stadium that hosted India’s second pink ball fixture at home last month will host its first-ever IPL.

Each team is set to play at four venues during the league stage. Out of the 56 league matches, Chennai, Mumbai, Kolkata & Bengaluru will host 10 matches each while Ahmedabad and Delhi will host 8 matches each. One of the highlights of this edition of the VIVO IPL will be the fact that all matches will be played at neutral venues, no team will play at their home venue. All teams will play at 4 out of 6 venues during the league stage.
