New Delhi

The Indian Premier League (IPL) will return to its original pre-Covid-19 home-and-away format from the 2023 season.

BCCI president Sourav Ganguly confirmed this in a letter addressed to the state associations.

Since the outbreak of Covid-19, IPL has been either played outside of India or in limited venues in the country for the last three editions due to restrictions imposed owing to the pandemic.

However, with the pandemic situation improving with each passing day, and things "going back to normalcy", the IPL will return to its old format in which each team plays one home and one away match.

"The next season of men's IPL will also go back to the home and away format with all ten teams playing their home matches at their designated venues," Ganguly wrote in the letter to state units.
