Bengaluru, March 7: The five-time champions Mumbai Indians will start their Indian Premier League title defence home away from home in Chennai against Royal Challengers Bangalore on the opening day of IPL 2021 - April 9.

After nearly two years, the IPL will return home after the COVID-19 pandemic forced IPL 2020 to be moved to the UAE. But the event will be held only in six cities - Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata - with no team having a home advantage.

So, Mumbai begin their campaign against RCB in Chennai and will end their league stage matches at Kolkata against Delhi Capitals on May 23.
