The Indian Premier League (IPL) will resume on Saturday following the simmering down of cross-border tensions between India and Pakistan.
A total of 17 matches will be played across six venues and will finish with the final on June 3.
The six venues are Bengaluru, Jaipur, Delhi, Lucknow, Mumbai, and Ahmedabad.
The venues for the qualifiers and final will be announced at a later stage.
On Friday, the IPL was suspended for a week because of an increase in hostilities between the neighbouring south Asian countries.
A statement from the Board of Control from Cricket in India (BCCI) said: “After extensive consultations with government and security agencies, and with all the key stakeholders, the Board has decided to proceed with the remainder of the season.”
The Pakistan Super League (PSL), which was initially moved to the United Arab Emirates and then postponed indefinitely, is also making plans to reschedule its final eight matches.
