IPL 2024 starts in less than seven days, with the first match taking place in Chennai on March 22 between the Chennai Super Kings and the Royal Challengers Bangalore. There is a lot of mystery surrounding the final schedule of the IPL as only the first two weeks of the schedule have been announced. IPL organizers are awaiting the date of the 2024 general elections to finalize the remaining fixtures. But Gautam Gambhir seemed to drop a hint on the last day of IPL 2024.
Gautam Gambhir has joined the KKR team as a mentor, a team he led to win the IPL.
“So one thing that anyone who plays with me will know about me is that everyone in this group is going to be treated equally. There are no senior juniors. There are no domestic, international. So we have a mission, that It’s about winning this IPL. So everyone needs to follow this simple path. May 26th, we should be there to give everything possible, starting from today. It won’t start on the 26th. It won’t start on the 23rd ( The day of KKR’s first match) starts,” he said in the video.

So, naturally, while the 23rd is the first day of IPL 2024 for KKR, May 26 seems to be the final date.
Ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) mentor Gautam Gambhir received a warm welcome from fans at the NSCBI Airport in Kolkata, claiming that Kolkata is his second home. The former India opener said KKR is an emotion for him and thanked the fans for giving such a warm welcome. “Thank you for standing here and giving me a warm welcome. Kolkata is like my second home and KKR is an emotion,” Gambhir told the media on Thursday. The 17th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) will kick off on March 22 with defending champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) taking on Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at their home stadium, Machidambaram Stadium South Indian Derby. .
KKR will play their first match of IPL 2024 against the Pat Cummins-led SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) on Saturday, March 23 at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. The game will begin at 7:30 p.m.
Earlier on Sunday, KKR appointed Phil Salt to replace Jason for the upcoming IPL 2024 season.
