IPL 2020: Full schedule of Delhi Capitals - fixtures, dates, timings and venues
Delhi Capitals will begin their campaign in the IPL 2020 against Kings XI Punjab on March 30.
The schedule for the 2020 edition of the Indian Premier League was released earlier today, with Mumbai Indians hosting the Chennai Super Kings in the opening fixture of the tournament. The league stage of the IPL is extended by a week this year, as the double-headers on Saturdays have been scrapped - a first in IPL's history.
Delhi Capitals will begin their campaign in IPL 2020 on the second day of the tournament, as they take on Kings XI Punjab at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.
The Delhi franchise, led by Shreyas Iyer, reached the play-offs of the tournament last year after years of disappointing performances in the IPL. The side was rechristened ahead of the 2019 season and was renamed from Delhi Daredevils. There was also a change in ownership, as Parth Jindal's JSW Group acquired stakes in the franchise.
Jindal is also the current chairman of Delhi Capitals.
In the auctions led for the 2020 season, the Capitals acquired Jason Roy, Chris Woakes, Alex Carey, Shimron Hetmyer, Mohit Sharma, Tushar Deshpande, Marcus Stoinis, and Lalit Yadav. Chris Morris, Colin Munro and Colin Ingram were among the notable players released by the franchise.
