Schedule
The IPL governing council announced that the 2026 tournament was scheduled to be played from March 28 to May 31, 2026. This clashed partially with assembly elections for the Indian states of Assam, Tamil Nadu, and West Bengal, which were held during AprilβMay 2026 because of expiring assembly terms in the three states. Kolkata (the capital of West Bengal) and Chennai (the capital of Tamil Nadu) are the home venues for KKR and CSK, respectively; the city of Guwahati in Assam has been chosen as a second home venue for RR. Because of security and logistical concerns, the full list of fixtures and matches was only announced after the election dates were finalized, with the BCCI initially only announcing the schedule for the first phase of IPL 2026, from March 28 to April 12. The full fixture schedule was released on March 26.

Controversies
Mustafizur Rahmanβs exclusion
During the IPL 2026 auction in December 2025, KKR signed Bangladeshi fast bowler Mustafizur Rahman to its squad. In January 2026, following diplomatic disputes between India and Bangladesh and threats from Indian extremist groups against Bangladeshi players participating in the competition, the BCCI instructed KKR to release Rahman from his player contract based on security concerns, and the franchise complied. A few days later the Bangladeshi government announced that it would ban the telecast of IPL 2026 in its country. The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) also wrote to the International Cricket Council (ICC) about its participation in the ICC Menβs 2026 T20 World Cup, which was held from February 7 to March 8 in India and Sri Lanka. The BCB sought the ICCβs permission to play its T20 World Cup matches in Sri Lanka or a neutral venue, citing Mustafizur Rahmanβs exclusion from the KKR squad as evidence of a security threat against Bangladeshi players and fans. However, the ICC refused to relocate the teamβs matches away from India, and the Bangladeshi government subsequently refused to allow its cricket squad to travel to India for the tournament. This led the ICC to replace Bangladesh with Scotland, the highest-ranked T20I team that had failed to qualify for the 2026 T20 World Cup.
Safety concerns about RCBβs home stadium
In June 2025, 11 people were killed and more than 30 were injured in a stampede during RCBβs 2025 IPL victory parade at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Safety concerns about the venue led to the cancellation of several events after the tragedy. In October 2025 a safety commission chaired by retired Indian judge John Michael DβCunha recommended that such factors as crowd management, stadium access, and emergency protocols be improved before the stadium could host major events again. The Karnataka government appointed an expert committee to oversee the implementation of the reportβs recommendations and in February 2026 granted the Karnataka State Cricket Association permission to host IPL matches at the stadium, provided the safety standards were met. In March 2026 the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium was cleared as a venue for RCBβs matches.
