Team India is presently playing a 3-match test series against South Africa and following that they are going to play an ODI series against the South African team. The IPL 2022 is also scheduled to be the 15th season, which will begin in April 2022. Looks like it is going to be a great year not just for team India but also for cricket fans. Betting fans also take this opportunity to bet on their favorite cricket match. With so many fantasy sports sites available, it is a competitive market.
The IPL fever has already set it as the releasing or retaining of players from various teams is already complete. Its tentative date is out and cricket enthusiasts are keen to know the dates. But it is expected that the BCCI is going to make the big announcement for the new IPL schedule.
There are two new teams this year and this has surely raised the excitement of the cricket fans. But the board is yet to release the starting date of the IPL matches.
IPL 2022 Schedule
IPL 2022 is going to be the 15th season of IPL as we already mentioned. The first step of this season has already been taken as the teams have declared retained and released players. The next step is the declaration of the auction date.
By now, there has been only the official information about the IPL start and end date. IPL 2022 matches will start from 2 April and the final will be played on 3rd June. All the IPL matches are going to begin at 19:30 IST.
This IPL season will last for over 70 days. A total of 74 matches will be held, including the finals. The opening match will be held on 2nd April, while the finals will be held on 3rd June. Since Chennai Super Kings has been the champion in the previous IPL season, it is being expected the finals will be held in Chennai. But these are just the tentative schedules.
The schedule will be released on the official site. Moreover, the starting date of the IPL matches is going to be advertised on Start Sports or on Disney Hotstar.
Venue for IPL 2022
Just like the dates, the IPL board is still to announce the match venue. However, yet again, the experts are continuously contemplating the venue for IPL 2022. It is now being estimated that Chennai is going to be the venue for every 15th match of the IPL.
Usually, the IPL matches are played at six venues, such as Ahmedabad, Chennai, Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, and Bengaluru. But due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the venues might be changed.
As per the experts, the venue for IPL will be in India if everything goes well. If the COVID cases in India increase, the board might take decisions to hold IPL out of India like 2021. So, once again, the board believes that there might be a risk of COVID transmission.
The top 4 teams in the IPL points table are going to qualify for the Semi-Finals.
IPL 2022 Mega Auction
The Mega auction for IPL had been postponed, and just a mini-auction took place in 2021. But there might be a mega auction this year.
The IPL Teams for 2022 –
- Delhi Capitals
- Royal Challengers Bangalore
- Sunrisers Hyderabad
- Kolkata Knight Riders
- Kings XI Punjab
- Lucknow
- Rajasthan Royals
- Ahmedabad
- Mumbai Indians
- Chennai Super Kings
IPL 2022 Format
IPL 2022 format is going to be the same as IPL 2021. All 10 teams are going to be divided into 2 groups. Within every group, each team is going to play twice. Group A and B will play with each other just once. Every team from both groups is going to play more than 1 match that will be chosen from the draw. So, every team is going to play 14 matches in the league. There are going to be two qualifiers, an eliminator, and a final.
So, we have to wait for the mega auction to be complete in February and for the board to publish the group details. Details about the ticket will be uploaded in the first week of March.
