IPL-9 Schedule

April 12, 2016

IMAGE: Chinese mobile company Vivo replaced PepsiCo as the title sponsor of the Indian Premier League. The change was necessitated after the beverage giant's sudden pull out from a five-year deal that was to end in 2017.

The ninth edition of the Indian Premier League 2016, which got underway on April 9, features eight teams and some of the world’s best cricketers.

Following the suspension of Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals, Rising Pune Supergiants and Gujarat Lions were inducted as the new teams for the next two seasons of the cash-rich Twenty20 extravaganza.

Check out the fixtures for the tournament, which ends May 29.
