On Saturday, a decision regarding IPL's playoff venues and dates was taken by the BCCI's apex council. BCCI supremo Sourav Ganguly confirmed the same.
In a major development on Saturday, BCCI president Sourav Ganguly confirmed the dates and venues for the playoffs of the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season. Furthermore, Ganguly also provided an update on the Women's T20 challenge.
Ganguly on Saturday confirmed that the three-team Women's challenger will be held in Lucknow from May 24th to 28th after an apex council meeting of the board on Saturday.
In another major development, the first play-off and eliminator will be played in Kolkata on May 24 and 26 followed by second play-off and final at Ahmedabad on May 27 and 29 respectively.
Another huge piece of news is that all of these games will see 100% crowd return to the venues, as currently only 50% crowd is being allowed in the four venues, where IPL's league stage games are taking place.
The tournament began with a 25% crowd cap, but as per reports, it has been increased in the wake of the reducing covid cases in India.

"As far as the men's IPL knock-out stage matches are concerned, it would be held in Kolkata and Ahmedabad, with hundred percent attendance allowed for the matches to be played after the league staged finishes on May 22," he added.
