(BCCI) in 2007. The tournament was hosted by India
and had an estimated television audience of more than 200 million people in the country. It was played between 12 March and 25 April 2010. It was also the first ever cricket tournament that was broadcast live on YouTube
. The final four matches of the tournament were screened in 3D
across movie halls in India.

, who defeated the Mumbai Indians
in the final played at Navi Mumbai
. The purple cap went to Pragyan Ojha

, Cuttack
, Navi Mumbai
, Ahmedabad
and Dharamsala
. Nagpur, Cuttack, and Navi Mumbai amongst them hosted the home games for Deccan Chargers
, and Ahmedabad and Dharamsala shared some of the home matches of Rajasthan Royals
and Kings XI Punjab
respectively. Additionally, Hyderabad
, which hosted all Deccan's home games in 2008, did not host any games this season. This was attributed to the possibility of unrest due to a Telengana state succession.

, Brian Lara
, Steve Waugh
and Shaun Pollock
urged the players not to give in to terrorism by opting out of the league.
The original list of 97 players was pared down to 96 after Chris Cairns' name was removed. Cairns, a former New Zealand international, was controversially omitted by the IPL bosses, Amit Ruparel and Lalit Modi, amid comments alleging that his suspension from the rebel Indian Cricket League was due to match fixing
. Cairns vehemently denied the references.
A total number of 66 players were included in the final auction list. The list featured players from Australia (11), South Africa (9), Sri Lanka (8), West Indies (8), Pakistan (7), New Zealand (4) and one each from Bangladesh, Canada, Holland and Zimbabwe.
51 of the registered players were shortlisted for the auction. Controversially all of England's players were omitted. According to Lalit Modi, this was because of "new conditions imposed by the ECB". Later all the nine English players were included in the auction list after league officials said that the dispute over NOCs had been resolved. This took the number of registered players to 60. West Indian all rounder Kieron Pollard
and New Zealand fast bowler Shane Bond
were the highest bid players in the auction who were bought for $750,000 but not before their prices went in the silent tie breaker round. Kieron Pollard was bought by Mumbai Indians
and Shane Bond by Kolkata Knight Riders
. However, in the most surprising development, not a single Pakistan player was signed up by any of the franchises. There were allegations that the reason the Pakistani players were not included was because the owners of the franchises were threatened of dire consequences if they choose any Pakistani players.
with the exception of the strategic timeout. Each innings had two mandatory timeouts of two-and-a-half minutes each. The fielding captain must take one at the end of over six, seven, eight or nine, and the batsmen at the end of over 13, 14, 15 or 16. Points in the group stage were awarded as follows:
According to rules, if a match ended with the scores tied, the tie is broken with a one-over-per-side Super Over
. The rules of the Super Over are as set out in the ICC Standard Twenty20 International match playing conditions (1 October 2009 version).

Attack
In one of the last games of the tournament, two bombs went off in Bangalore, while another was defused. The game on the day did continue, however, after an hour's delay. As a consequence both semi-finals were moved out of the city. A third device was defused on 18 April 2010. All three devices were hidden in the stadium's perimeter wall and the two explosions were believed to have injured 15 people. Initial investigations suggested that the explosives used in the devices were locally made and were of low intensity.Transfers
