Guwahati: The wait is finally over as Mumbai Indians get ready to start their title defense against MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings on September 19.
For much of this year, the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League(IPL) seemed the unluckiest of all. As recently as last May, the tournament was shrouded in uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In this backdrop, the start of this much-delayed tournament is a coup of sorts. However, the 53-day tournament would be without spectators, glamour, and celebrations that mark the annual mid-summer festival.
