BCCI Hints At Expanded 94-Match IPL. Reports Makes Big Claim On New Teams

IPL chairman Arun Dhumal said the BCCI is seriously considering to expand the league to a 94-match home-and-away format from the next media rights cycle, which falls in 2028.

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) slumped to their seventh defeat in nine matches in IPL 2025 as they lost to Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at home on Friday.

Sehwag even labelled Jadeja's strike rate as poor.
