The Indian Premier League, also known as IPL and Tata IPL for sponsorship reasons, is a men's Twenty20 cricket league held annually in India. Founded by the BCCI in 2007, the league features ten state or city-based franchise teams. It is the most popular and richest cricket league in the world and its seasons usually take place between March and May. It has an exclusive window in the ICC Future Tours Programme, resulting in fewer international cricket tours occurring during the IPL seasons. It is also India's the most viewed sports competition followed by Pro Kabaddi League & Indian Super League as per BARC.
