WPL 2024 Will Start From 23th February , MI VS DC 1st Match .
The much-anticipated second season of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) is set to enthral cricket enthusiasts, commencing in Bengaluru on February 23, 2024. The opening match will feature a clash between last year’s finalists, Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals, at the iconic Chinnaswamy Stadium. Cricket fans can mark their calendars as the game is scheduled to commence at 7:30 pm, promising an electrifying start to the season.
According to the schedule crafted by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), the second match of WPL 2024 will witness a face-off between Royal Challengers Bangalore and UP Warriorz. As the excitement mounts, the final showdown is slated for March 17, with an Eliminator game preceding it on March 15, both to be hosted in Delhi at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.
In a departure from the original plan, the 22-game caravan model of the WPL 2024 will unfold exclusively at two venues – Bengaluru and Delhi. Bengaluru will host 11 games during its leg, which extends until March 4. Subsequently, the WPL spectacle will shift to the national capital, Delhi, where the competition will recommence on March 5, lasting for a thrilling 24 days.
One notable aspect of the schedule is the absence of doubleheaders, maintaining a unique charm for each match. All encounters are set to kick off at 7:30 pm, ensuring prime time entertainment for cricket enthusiasts. While the majority of matches adhere to this schedule, on select occasions, teams will face the challenge of playing back-to-back games on consecutive days.
Originally conceived to follow a home and away model similar to the Indian Premier League (IPL), the BCCI had to rethink the logistical aspects, resulting in all the matches of the first season being played in Mumbai. The second season continues this trend, with logistical challenges prompting the decision to confine the matches to just two cities.
