While there is a lot of speculation over the second phase of the IPL 2024 schedule, at least there seems to be a clarity now, that it would be announced soon, after the Lok Sabha elections dates are out on March 16. With the IPL starting on March 22, the T20 World Cup is lined up right after it, starting June 2 in the USA & West Indies.
So when the IPL actually end? While no one really knows until now, but it seems, Kolkata Knight Riders’ mentor Gautam Gambhir might have accidentally revealed the day final’s date. During a practice session on Friday, whose video was released the next day, Gambhir can been seen urging the team, to start work for ‘May 26 from today’.
“So people who played with me will know one thing about me, that everyone in this group will be treated equally. There’s no senior junior. There is no domestic, international. So we have got one mission and that is to win this IPL. So everyone needs to follow that one simple path. On 26th May, we should be there giving everything possible, and it starts from today. It’s not gonna start on the 26th. It’s not gonna start on the 23rd (day of KKR’s first match),” he said in a video.
IPL Likely to Remain India
Over the last few days, there have been some contrasting reports, if the IPL second leg will happen in India or not. But a few days back, IPL chairman Arun Dhumal had sounded confident, that the tournament would stay in India only, just like 2019, another general elections year.
