In the revised schedule, Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and Punjab Kings will not get to play their remaining home games.
The game that was abandoned due to bad light between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals will be replayed on May 24. Apart from that, Punjab Kings will play the rest of their games in Jaipur.
