Specifics of the Indian Premier League in 2024
IPL 2024, also known as the Indian Premier League, is currently in its seventeenth session, and all eyes will be on the player who will be awarded the Purple Cap for the IPL 2024 season. The IPL 2023 purple cap was earned by Mohammad Shami, who also topped the WPL purple cap 2023 list with 28 wickets when he was awarded the purple cap.
During the current season, players like Rashid Khan, Jasprit Bumrah, Ravindra Jadeja, Arshdeep Singh, R Ashwin, and Akash Madhwal will be competing for the opportunity to earn the purple cap for the Indian Premier League in 2024. According to the Indian Premier League (IPL), the Purple Cap is given to the player who has taken the most wickets during a specific season of the IPL.
In the same way that the Orange Cap is used to acknowledge the player who has scored the most runs, it serves as a symbol of greatness for bowlers. The individual who now possesses the Purple Cap is the one who has taken the most wickets during the entirety of the competition up to that moment.
As a result of the general elections, the calendar for the Indian Premier League 2024 has been established for the first two weeks of the tournament. The second phase of the IPL 2024 schedule is anticipated to be revealed at any time. Each team will compete in at least three matches during the first leg of the tournament.
The Delhi Capitals will play their home games in Visakhapatnam rather than in Delhi for the first leg of the tournament (which will take place in Delhi). Following their victory over Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, Chennai Super Kings emerged victorious in the Indian Premier League 2023. The two other teams who could advance to the playoffs were the Mumbai Indians and the Lucknow Super Giants.
