The 2023 Indian Premier League (also known as TATA IPL 2023 for sponsorship reasons and sometimes referred to as IPL 2023 or IPL 16) is the ongoing 16th season of the Indian Premier League, a franchise Twenty20 cricket league in India. It is owned and operated by Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).[1]
Background
The league returned to its original home-and-away format after a period of four years.[2] Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic the previous three seasons were held at neutral venues.[3] "Fan parks" are being organised in 45 cities, events which last occurred in 2019,[4][lower-alpha 1] and an opening ceremony took place for the first time since the pandemic with performances from Arijit Singh, Tamanna Bhatia and Rashmika Mandanna.[5][6]
Participating teams
The same 10 teams from the previous season have returned with few changes to the team personnel.[7][8]
Rules
A number of new laws have been introduced in this season:
- A penalty of five runs if unfair movement by a fielder or wicketkeeper occurs as a ball being delivered and before it is received by the batsman. The dead ball will also be declared.[9]
- Teams can be declared after the toss.
- An "Impact Player" rule allowing sides to substitute a player during a match from four named substitutes.[10]
- If a team fails to bowl their 20 overs in the allocated time, only four fielders will be allowed outside of the fielding restrictions circle for the remainder of the innings.[9]
- Teams can review balls for wides and no-balls using the Decision Review System (DRS). This change was first used during the 2023 Women's Premier League.[11]

In November 2022, Shikhar Dhawan replaced Mayank Agarwal as the captain of Punjab Kings.[15]
The IPL auction took place on 23 December 2022 in Kochi.[16] The most expensive player was Sam Curran, bought by Punjab Kings for ₹18.50 crore (US$2.1 million), the most paid for a player in the history of the league.[17]

Criticism

In the current IPL season, matches are taking a longer time to finish, due to teams bowling at a slow over-rate. According to the IPL rules, an inning should be completed in a stipulated 90 minutes, which also includes two 5-minute strategic timeouts, and a complete match should be finished in 3 hours and 20 minutes. However, as of 5 April 2023, not a single inning had ended in the above-mentioned time frame. Umpires and match referees are supposed to penalise teams which bowl with a slow over-rate, but on only one occasion have the IPL umpires given a penalty to a team.[citation needed] England cricketer Jos Buttler appealed on Twitter that the IPL matches should be speeded up. Due to the slow over-rates of the various teams, this season's matches are finishing after 11:30pm. IPL evening matches are scheduled to start at 7:30pm, and therefore should be concluded by 10:50pm.[20]
