IPL 2022 Format:
The IPL 2022 Schedule Format is similar to IPL 2011. The teams will be divided into 2 groups. Group 1 and Group 2. Now, these groups will have 5 teams each. Every team will play the other 4 teams in their groups two times which will boil down to 8 games. Further, every team will play 4 teams from the other group. The 1 team that remains from the other group, it will be played against two times.
