The Indian Premier League, also famous as IPL, is a short-lived entertainment filled with glitz, glamour, cheerleaders, and big-screen stars revolving around non-stop cricket action. Here, not only does the joy happen on the ground, but also the support from the audience takes IPL to the next level.
As we all know that COVID-19 impacted VIVO IPL 2020, and after a long wait, the new IPL 2020 Schedule date was published. It will be the thirteenth season of the IPL in 2020. And now, the IPL 2020 would be played in a stadium without an audience or 50% audience strength in the United Arab Emirates. The cricket format will be Twenty20, established by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) in the year 2007.
The cricket fever is towering the roof every year with the IPL. This year the IPL 2020 played between the dates 19th September 2020 and 10th November 2020. There are eight teams and matches that will be 60. The first match will be held on 19th September 2020 between Mumbai Indians (MI) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Abu Dhabi, UAE, and the final match expected to be on 10th November 2020.
BCCI received the final approval from India’s Government to move IPL 2020 to the United Arab Emirates. As VIVO away from the IPL in 2020, Dream 11 begs as a title sponsorship for IPL 2020 with rs 222 crores, and the BCCI announced CRED as an official partner for IPL for a period of 3 years, i.e., from 2020 to 2022.
