The Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur, the home ground of the Rajasthan Royals franchise, will not host any match in the upcoming 6th edition of the IPL. Rajkot and Ahmedabad have been named as the replacement venues. The BCCI, in a meeting in Chennai decided to shift all the matches from Jaipur to Rajkot and Ahnedabad and cited the long-standing impasse between Rajasthan's sports council, the custodians of the stadium and the Rajasthan Cricket Association as the reason for the decision. 

The sixth edition of the IPL commences on April 3 with Eden Gardens, Kolkata hosting the opening ceremony. The list of the home matches to be played by the Rajasthan Royals are as follows: April 8, Monday : RR Vs KKR (8 PM) April 14, Sunday: RR Vs KXIP (8 PM) April 17, Wednesday: RR Vs MI (8 PM) April 27, Saturday: RR Vs Sun Risers Hyderabad (4 PM) April 29, Monday: RR Vs RCB (4 PM) May 5, Sunday: RR Vs PWI (8 PM) May 7, Tuesday: RR Vs DD (4 PM) May 12, Sunday: RR Vs CSK (8 PM).
