Introduction
The 2023 IPL season marked a return to the traditional home-and-away format after a four-year hiatus caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which had necessitated neutral venues for the previous three seasons. The excitement of live cricket was amplified with the organization of "fan parks" across 45 cities, reminiscent of the last such events held in 2019. Additionally, the season celebrated its revival with an opening ceremony featuring captivating performances by Arijit Singh, Tamannaah Bhatia, and Rashmika Mandanna, adding a vibrant touch to the league's grand return.IPL 2023 Format
In the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL), the tournament structure was organized into a two-group format to accommodate the expanded roster of teams. Each group consisted of five teams:Group A
Mumbai Indians, Kolkata Knight Riders, Rajasthan Royals, Delhi Capitals, Lucknow Super GiantsGroup B
Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad, Gujarat Titans, Royal Challengers Bangalore, Punjab KingsThe format was designed as follows:
Each team played against all five teams in the opposite group twice—once at home and once away. Each team also played against the four teams in their own group once. Consequently, every team played a total of 14 matches: 7 home games and 7 away games. This format ensured that each team had an equal number of home and away games, providing a balanced competition throughout the season.| Group A | Group B |

Who won the IPL 2022?
In the 2022 IPL season, the Gujarat Titans made an unforgettable debut by clinching the coveted title with a dominant victory over the Rajasthan Royals. Their triumph in Ahmedabad, where they secured a commanding 7-wicket win, underscored their prowess and resilience throughout the tournament. Led by strong leadership and bolstered by a balanced team composition, the Titans showcased their capability to perform under pressure and deliver consistent performances on the grand stage of the IPL. This achievement marked a remarkable beginning for the Gujarat Titans, establishing them as a formidable force in the world of cricket from their very first season.What’s new in IPL 2023?
The 2023 IPL season introduced the "impact player" rule, a significant change designed to enhance strategic depth. Teams were allowed to nominate five substitute players in addition to their starting eleven, with one of these impact players able to be substituted in during the match to alter the game’s dynamics. This rule aimed to provide teams with greater flexibility and tactical options. However, it faced criticism from cricket pundits who argued that it undermined the value of all-rounders, as teams could now more freely adjust their lineup to address specific match situations.IPL 2023 Squad
