IPL 2026 is set to start on 26th March, with the final being played on 31st May. All 10 teams have finalized their squads. While teams like Mumbai Indians (MI) have retained the core players, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have added plenty of new faces to the squad.
The winner will be decided by how well the players work together, not the teams’ rosters. The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) team is the defending champion, looking to secure consecutive IPL titles this year.
