IPL 2021 is around the corner as teams have already begun preparations for the 14th edition of the Indian Premier League. The tournament is set to start on April 9 and will end on May 30 with the final at the world’s largest cricket stadium in Ahmedabad — the Narendra Modi Stadium.

The 8 teams will play across six cities with each side playing in four venues out of the decided ones. This time around, there will be no home advantage for any team as none of the franchises will get to play at their home stadiums.

The first half of the tournament will also be hosted without fans with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) set to decide about the latter stages in due course, keeping in mind the state of the country with regards to the ongoing pandemic.
