Once the IPL 2027 schedule comes out
The 2027 fixtures have not been announced by the BCCI yet. Cricbuzz's series page gives a span running 10 March to 15 May 2027, and it reports that span rather than any fixtures. A 2027 match shows up here only once the BCCI announces it. Once the announcement comes, each match appears with its number, date, start time in IST and ground. Completed games also enter that table with the result.
You can see the format in the 2026 season, which has 74 matches spread over 62 match days between 28 March and 31 May. Two matches take place on 12 of those days.
