The Indian Premier League (IPL) will return to its original, pre-COVID-19, home-and-away format from the 2023 season

The IPL has been held at only a few venues since the outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020, In 2021 too, the tournament was held across four venues – Delhi, Ahmedabad, Mumbai, and Chennai – before it was again moved to the UAE because of COVID-19 cases in teams’ camps.

However, with things “going back to normalcy”, the IPL will return to its old format in which each team plays one home and one away match. Ganguly also mentioned the “BCCI is currently working on the much-awaited Women’s IPL” to hold it “early next year.”
