IPL 2022: The Chennai Super Kings are up against Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL's inaugural match.

The inaugural match of the Indian Premier League 2022 has begun and the Kolkata Knight Riders, led by Shreyas Iyer, won the toss and opted to bowl against defending champions Chennai Super Kings.

As the match begins, we look at the pre-match excitement as the 15th season of the IPL commences today. Let’s start with an IPL video tweet.


Tata Group, the title sponsor of the tournament shared a LinkedIn post saying there were “thrilled” to be part of the game.

Desh ka spirit. Desh ka enthusiasm. Desh Ka Pitch. Over the years, we’ve fostered and nurtured India’s zeal for sports. And today, we’re thrilled to be the title sponsor for desh ka sabse exciting game - the TATA IPL,” the conglomerate wrote sharing a photo.

So did Kolkata Knight Riders.

KKR followed it with a “The beginning of a new chapter” tweet.

Here are some reactions from fans:




On Ravindra Jadeja taking over CSK captaincy from MS Dhoni, one fan had to say this:
All matches this IPL season will be played in Pune and Mumbai. CSK and KKR had faced each other in the finals last year and the former won its fourth title. The 10 teams will play a total of 70 league games over the next two months.
