NEW DELHI, Feb 22 (AFP): The money-spinning Indian Premier League will likely begin its next season on March 22 but will keep its fixtures flexible to accommodate the country's mammoth general election, the national cricket board announced on Thursday.
Defending champions Chennai Super Kings, led by 42-year-old former India captain M.S. Dhoni, will face Royal Challengers Bangalore in the first match of the world's most popular and lucrative Twenty20 league. But the BCCI only announced the season's first 21 matches, tentatively scheduled through to April 07, and said in a statement the schedule could be revised after India's election was called.
