New Delhi: Mumbai Indians will start the defence of their Indian Premier League (IPL) title against two-time winners Chennai Super Kings on April 7 in the league's 11th season that will see 60 matches and culminate on May 27. 

Matches will be played at nine venues across 51 days. The Eliminator and Qualifier 2 have not been assigned a particular venue yet but the Qualifier 1 and the final will be played at the Wankhede Stadium.

The MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai and the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur will host home games of Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals, respectively, as the two franchises make a return to the league after serving two-year suspension in a corruption case. 

Kings XI Punjab will share Indore and Mohali as their home base, playing three and four matches respectively at the two venues.
