IPL 2023
The 2023 Indian Premier League, also known as IPL 16, is the sixteenth season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The IPL is the T20 cricket league established by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). The Tata Group is the title sponsor for IPL seasons 2022 and 2023. For this reason, IPL16 is also called “TATA IPL 2023.”
The IPL 2023 auction was held in December 2022, where each team had a purse of INR 90 crore to spend on buying or retaining players. The teams were allowed to retain up to four players ahead of the auction, and also had the option of releasing players to free up space in their squad. Several high-profile players were bought at the auction, including Steve Smith, Glenn Maxwell, Ben Stokes, and Shubman Gill.
The teams have been divided into two groups - Group A and Group B, with four teams in each group. The top four teams from each group will qualify for the playoffs, which consist of two qualifiers, an eliminator, and a final. The winner of the final will be crowned the IPL 2023 champion.
The tournament will kick off with a match between Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Titans on March 31, 2023 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. The final will also be played at the same venue on May 28, 2023.

Chennai Super Kings IPL 2023 Venue
The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will kickstart its campaign in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 season against the Gujarat Titans on March 31 at the iconic Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. The stadium has a seating capacity of over 1,32,000, making it the largest cricket stadium in the world. This match will mark the beginning of a grueling season for both teams, as they aim to start on a winning note and set the tone for the rest of the tournament.
The Chennai-based franchise had a disappointing season in 2022, finishing ninth in the points table after the league stage, failing to qualify for the playoffs for the first time in IPL history. However, under the leadership of the legendary MS Dhoni, the team will be hoping to make a strong comeback and claim its fifth IPL title in 2023.
The IPL 2023 season will see the teams split into two groups - A and B, with each team playing seven matches in their respective group. The top two teams from each group will qualify for the playoffs, which will culminate in the final on May 28 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. With the likes of Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bangalore, and Kolkata Knight Riders also in the mix, the road to the final won't be an easy one for CSK. However, with their strong track record in the IPL and the return of their talismanic captain, they will be a force to be reckoned with in the tournament.
