Dubai: The wait is finally over after the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) finally announced the schedule for the upcoming Indian Premier League campaign, beginning on September 19 in the UAE.
While fans have been calling out for the fixtures to be announced, it looks like the wait has been worth it as the BCCI confirmed on Sunday that the reigning champions Mumbai Indians will take on MS Dhoni’s beaten 2019 finalists, the Chennai Super Kings, in the opening match in Abu Dhabi at 6pm on September 19.
