The IPL tournament began on Saturday, 18 April 2009 and all 59 matches are being broadcast on SuperSport2 (DStv Channel 202).
The channel covers the tournament 12-hours a day and features: live broadcasts of each match, a special studio show called Red Hot IPL and footage from previous classic matches.
SuperSport Blitz (DStv Channel 200) also has hourly news updates.
In most instances the SuperSport2 live broadcasts start earlier and end later than the matches so the broadcast times differ from the actual match times.
The standard match times are:
Day Games
12h30 - 13h50: 1st innings
13h50 - 14h10: Tea break
14h10 - 15h30: Play resumes
Day/Night Games
16h30 - 17h50: 1st innings
17h50 - 18h10: Tea break
18h10 - 19h30: Play resumes
