Indian Premier League-6 will
run from 3 April to 26 May 2013 with Kolkata and Chennai hosting the playoffs. Kolkata's Eden Gardens
will host the first match as well as the final as they were the
champions of the 2012 season. Nine teams would be playing in the sixth
season.
Due to protests in the state of Tamil Nadu and the controversy arising from the actions of the Sri Lankan government, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister, Jayalalitha has requested the the Prime Minister of India, Dr. Manmohan Singh not to allow any Sri Lankan players, umpires or any other support staff to play in IPL matches to be held in Chennai.
The sixth season of IPL opened in February 3, 2013 with the auction for players. 108 players were on offer but only 37 players were sold for US$ 11.87 million. The Australian all rounder Glenn Maxwell was the only million dollar buy.
Deccan Chargers were ousted from the league almost five-months ago. Instead, Sunrisers Hyderabad will play from the 2013 season onwards on behalf of them as they have almost all the players from the Deccan's 2012 team.
