Factoring in the Lok Sabha elections, the BCCI and IPL management have scheduled the matches keeping in mind the different cities and phases that the elections will be held. To avoid a clash with the elections, matches have been kept clear of cities at a time when the citizens of that area will be stepping out in large numbers to cast their vote. The schedule for the knock-out matches is yet to be announced.
As opposed to earlier speculation that matches could be shifted to venues that host lesser matches in the Indian cricketing circuit, the traditional eight stadiums will hold all the group stage matches. The schedule of the marquee tournament stays true to its identity, giving each franchisee 7 home fixtures while the rest of their 7 clashes will be away matches as per the usual format.
The eight stadiums that will be hosting the group stage matches are the MA Chidambaram Stadium – Chennai, Eden Gardens – Kolkata, Wankhede Stadium – Mumbai, Sawai Mansingh Stadium – Jaipur, Feroz Shah Kotla – Delhi, M Chinnaswamy Stadium – Bengaluru, Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium – Hyderabad and Punjab Cricket Association IS Bindra Stadium – Mohali. Chennai’s MA Chidambaram Stadium would hold the final match.
