In a major development for the new season of the IPL (Indian Premier League), the IPL 2025 is all set to kick off on March 21. Rajeev Shukla, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) vice president, told India Today about the commencement date of the marquee event. Meanwhile, while he confirmed the inaugural date, he did not state the dates of the playoffs and the final, and the entire schedule is also awaited as of now.

It is worth noting that the decision was meeting in the recent BCCI meeting, where decisions were made about the appointment of the new treasurer and secretary, with discussions focusing on the responsibilities ahead. The same is expected to be done at the next meeting, which is scheduled for the next Sunday, January 19.

Kolkata Knight Riders, who lifted the coveted IPL trophy in 2024, will enter the field at the eighteenth edition to defend the title.
