Now that the election dates are confirmed, the BCCI has unveiled the complete fixtures for the league stage, which will continue until May 24.
Among the teams to watch this season is the Rajasthan Royals (RR), who will host three of their seven home matches at the ACA Stadium in Guwahati, while the remaining four will take place at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur.
