New Delhi, India: Virat Kohli and Rishabh Pant will be under scrutiny on their return to action as the Indian Premier League begins tomorrow, with the T20 World Cup hot on its heels.
The 17th edition of the world’s richest cricket league is expected to end close to the June 1 start of the World Cup in the West Indies and United States.
Organisers have released only the first two weeks of the IPL schedule so far because it clashes with India’s six-week-long general election.
Last season the 10-team IPL lasted eight weeks.
Master batsman Kohli, who missed India’s 4-1 Test series victory over England because of the birth of his second child, is back with Royal Challengers Bengaluru, previously the Royal Challengers Bangalore.
