IPL 2018 updated schedule: Virat Kohli-led RCB’s game against DD rescheduled due to Karnataka elections

Captain Fantastic: Kohli captains Royal Challengers Bangalore in the cash-rich IPL


After the change in Preity Zinta-led Kings XI Punjab’s (KXIP) schedule, the eleventh edition of Indian Premier League is set to go under another change.

Virat Kohli-led Royal Challengers Bangalore’s home game against Gautam Gambhir’s Delhi Daredevils has been swapped with DD as Karnataka elections are due on 12th May.

Earlier, RCB were to host DD on 12th May, but now according to the new schedule, DD will host RCB on 12th May and the Bangalore-based team will hosts Delhi on 21st April.

However, Royal Challengers Bangalore will return to play their home game against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) on 17th May.

Meanwhile, Delhi Daredevils match on the home ground has been pushed further by two more days.

Earlier, DD were supposed to play against RCB on 21st April but now they will play their first home game on 23rd April.

But there was the change in the plan due to the maintenance work at the Chandigarh Airport.
