The Indian Premier League (formerly known as the "DLF Indian Premier League"), is a Twenty20 cricket competition created by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and sanctioned by the International Cricket Council. The first edition of the Indian Premier League started on 18 April 2008. The IPL now consists of 8 teams. The IPL is the most-attended cricket league in the world and in 2014 ranked sixth by average attendance among all sports leagues. In 2010, the IPL became the first sporting event in the world to be broadcast live on YouTube. The brand value of the IPL in 2019 was ₹475 billion (US$6.7 billion), according to Duff & Phelps. According to BCCI, the 2015 IPL season contributed ₹11.5 billion (US$160 million) to the GDP of the Indian economy.

The IPL logo consists of two pieces
- Batsman hitting a attacking stroke to represent the game of cricket. The swish of the ball moving attempts to signify that the game is fast moving and more exciting.
- The text "Indian Premier League" written in blue, probably to represent India's colours.
Overall, I am quite disappointed in the logo. Firstly it lacks any color and originality. I think the logo could have been more colorful. The logos of the participating teams are a lot more colorful and original and the IPL logo pales in comparison even more. Click the Read more link below for additional details on the logos.
Over the 12 seasons of the IPL, the number of teams has varied from 8-10 teams with the following teams no longer in the IPL for various reasons.
- Delhi DareDevils
- Pune Warriors India
- Hyderabad Deccan Chargers
- Kochi Tuskers
- Rising Pune Supergiants
- Gujarat Lions
