IPL 2025 To Start On March 14 As BCCI Reveals Dates For Next Three Seasons: Report
New Delhi: In a first-of-its-kind move, the IPL has announced the dates for the next three seasons. The 2025 season is set to run from March 14 to May 25, followed by the 2026 season from March 15 to May 31, and the 2027 season from March 14 to May 30.
In an email to franchises on Thursday, accessed by ESPNcricinfo, the IPL referred to these as "windows," though they are likely to become the final dates. The 2025 season will feature 74 matches, consistent with the previous three editions. However, this is ten fewer than the 84 matches outlined in the IPL’s 2022 media rights document for the 2023-27 cycle.
The tender for the media rights had projected varying match counts across seasons: 74 matches each in 2023 and 2024, 84 matches in 2025 and 2026, and up to 94 games in 2027, the final year of the rights cycle.
