Assembly Polls Dated: IPL 2026 Remaining Matches Schedule Incoming

The cricket calendar aligns with electoral timelines as BCCI prepares to drop the full IPL 2026 schedule post the Election Commission’s announcement. Vice-President Rajeev Shukla assured fans that the hold on remaining fixtures was purely precautionary for security during state elections.

‘Today’s election program release allows us to move forward,’ Shukla told the press. Polls in Kerala, Assam, Puducherry (April 9), Tamil Nadu (April 23), and West Bengal (April 23 & 29) culminate with May 4 results.

First phase details from March 11 cover 20 games till April 12 at 10 venues including Bengaluru, Mumbai, and more. RCB-SRH opener, MI-KKR follow-up, and four double-headers highlight the start.

Prime example: April 4’s DC-MI at Delhi’s Arun Jaitley, then GT-RR in Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium. Timings: 3:30 PM day, 7:30 PM night.

This synchronization underscores BCCI’s commitment to national priorities while delivering world-class entertainment. Expect the comprehensive schedule soon, ramping up anticipation for IPL’s 19th edition packed with star power and rivalries.
