When and where to watch IPL 2017 Opening Ceremony?

The Indian Premier League is back and the action will begin on 5th April 2017 when Royal Challengers Bangalore will take on the Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium.

IPL and entertainment go hand in hand and before the cricket takes over, the focus will be on the grand opening ceremony which will be a mix up of Bollywood and cricket. Playing at the home turf against a depleted RCB side, Hyderabad will certainly have the upper hand.

KL Rahul has been ruled out of the tournament with an injury while Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers are set to miss the initial part with an injury too. Shane Watson will have the added responsibility of leading the side in their absence.

While Hyderabad is also facing a similar problem with questions over Mustafizur Rahman and Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s absence, they are still in a better position than the visitors. To make things more interesting, this year’s tournament will have as many as eight opening ceremonies.
