Only seven days to go for the kick-off of the 17th edition of the Indian Premier League in Chennai. Teams have already kicked off their initial training camps with the majority of players starting preparing for the IPL 2024 starting on March 22.
Teams are locking their final rosters with some tweaks due to player injuries and late withdrawals. Six teams have been forced to update their player list so far while champions Chennai Super Kings, Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals are facing injury scares.
Royal Challengers Bangalore, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Punjab Kings remain with their original squads after the auction in December last year and also face no injury troubles ahead of the opener in Chennai on March 22.
