The 2022 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is all set to take place from March 26 to May 29. The league will kick-off with a rematch of last year's final as Chennai Super Kings (CSK) take on Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The league matches of the 2022 edition will be played across four venues in Mumbai and Pune. 70 league games will be held, followed by four playoff matches. A few players have featured in every edition of the IPL played so far. Here's a look.
