Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 is all set to start from March 26th and the entire league will be played in 4 venues across Mumbai and Pune. A total of 55 Matches will be played in Mumbai and the rest of 15 matches will be in Pune.

Mr. Nainesh Desai, the cricket secretary of the Surat District Cricket Association (SDCA), said –  “Top cricketing stars like MS Dhoni, Dwayne Bravo, Ravindra Jadeja, and other national and international stars will be part of the practice camp. The cricket franchise selected Surat as we have developed pitches using the same soil as it is in Mumbai.”

Even Mr. Hemant Contractor, president of the SDCA, said – “Due to the big bubble, no spectators will be allowed at the stadium and we expect that people of Surat will support us in maintaining the player’s infection-free. Such events put the city in the country’s cricketing map and we hope to get national and international cricket events here.”

This year IPL has come up with a new format and divided all the 10 teams into two groups (Group A and Group B). Chennai Super Kings stand in Group B and this also includes SunRisers Hyderabad, Royal Challengers Bangalore, Punjab Kings, and Gujarat Titans.

CSK will have to play two league matches against all the teams in Group B, two against Mumbai Indians, and one match each against the rest of the teams.

CSK franchise owners were successful in grabbing their core 8 players in the IPL Mega Auctions 2022 and they have already built a balanced side on paper. But unfortunately, their star players like Suresh Raina and Faf du Plessis have not been picked for this edition by the men in yellow.
