BCCI on Thursday announced that the defending champions Chennai Super Kings will host the final for the 2019 IPL. The BCCI also announced the second phase of the matches till May 5th, leaving out the knockouts.
BCCI first released the dates for the knockouts but pulled out immediately as they wanted to stay flexible because of the elections. Vishakapatnam has been included as the backup venue.
In January, the BCCI had released a short initial schedule, restricted to just 17 matches starting from March 23 till April 5 and the entire schedule wasn’t announced at that time because of the election dates. Recently, the Election Commission of India announced the dates for the general elections, which will begin on April 9 to May 23.
