If you’re new to cricket, the T20 format (one of three versions of the game currently widely played) isn’t a bad place to start. Matches typically last around 3 hours, as opposed to Test matches, which can go on for days, or One-Day International (ODI) games, which can go literally all day.
And there’s no T20 league more popular than the Indian Premier League (IPL). The most-watched cricket league in the world, it was started in 2007 by the BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India). The league season consists of 70 matches over two months in the spring.
This year, the buzz around the IPL is even greater because of the upcoming T20 Men’s World Cup in June.
All 70 matches of the IPL 2024 season are on Willow TV. And Sling TV has the best deal on Willow, so you can watch every wicket and save money, too!
IPL 2024 Overview
Cricket is the most popular sport in India, so the IPL is not unlike their NFL, though with a much shorter season and smaller pool of teams. But the two-month series is very much a national pastime: carefully followed, hotly debated, and widely watched. Top cricketers have legions of fans and are treated like rock stars.
The IPL is made up of ten teams. Here they are, with team captains:
- Chennai Super Kings (CSK) – MS Dhoni
- Delhi Capitals (DC) – Rishabh Pant
- Gujarat Titans (GT) – Shubman Gill
- Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) – Shreyas Iyer
- Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) – KL Rahul
- Mumbai Indians (MI) – Hardik Pandya
- Punjab Kings (PBKS) – Shikhar Dhawan
- Rajasthan Royals (RR) – Sanju Samson
- Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) – Faf du Plessis
- Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) – Pat Cummins
Notable changes for the 2024 season include:
- Hardik Pandya is replacing Rohit Sharma as the captain of the Mumbai Indians.
- Shubman Gill is replacing Hardik Pandya as captain of the Gujarat Titans.
- Shreyas Iyer returns from a year out due to injury to captain the KKR, replacing Nitish Rana.
- Similarly, Rishabh Pant will resume his captaincy of the Dehli Capitals from David Warner after recovering from injuries.
- Aiden Markram will be replaced by Pat Cummins as captain of the Sunrisers Hyderabad.
The schedule is packed, with at least one game per day, and two each on Saturday and Sunday. At the end of the two months, the top four teams according to the points table standings duke it out in three playoff fixtures to determine the season’s IPL 2024 Champion. You can find a complete schedule with matches and times at the bottom of the page.
Watch IPL 2024 on Sling TV
Willow TV is your one-stop shop for cricket in the US. Nowhere else comes close. The Willow Cricket Mini package includes Willow HD and Willow Xtra and carries all the IPL matches for just $10/mo. If you know you’re up for cricket all year long, you can double down on an annual plan and only pay half that ($60 total, or $5/mo). Or, if you’re just into the IPL, you can subscribe monthly, with your first month merely $7.
That’s all fine, but man does not live by cricket alone. If you want around 40 popular channels like Food Network, FX, TNT, Discovery, Disney, ESPN, or HGTV, plus thousands of hours of on-demand titles, you’d be seriously missing out to not pick up a Sling Orange or Blue subscription ($40.00/month for either one) or live large and grab them both for $55.00/month. And if you go that route, Willow TV is just a $5/mo add-on.
