The 17th season of IPL will be under the captaincy of Rituraj

Even in the 2022 IPL, Chennai changed the captain and handed over the command to Ravindra Jadeja, but given the poor performance of the team, Dhoni was made the captain again in the middle of the season. This time the captaincy of new captain Rituraj will be worth watching.

The first match will be against RCB

Now only a few hours are left for the 17th season of IPL 2024 to start. The first match of the season will be played between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). The match will take place at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai from 8:00 pm on Friday.
