Schedule for t20 2015 description

The eighth season started on 8 April 2015 and will run until the final on 24 May 2015. There has been a fresh auction of players among teams. This season had to be adjusted around a week late than every year because of the tight scheduling of teams due to the 2015 Cricket World Cup.

There are five ways that a franchise can acquire a player: In the annual auction, signing domestic players, signing uncapped players, through trading, and signing replacements. In the trading window, the player can only be traded with his consent. The franchise will have to pay the difference between the old contract price and the new contract price. If the new contract is worth more than the older one, then the difference will be shared between the player and the franchise selling the player.
Some of the team composition rules are:
A minimum squad strength of 16 players plus one physiotherapist and a coach.
No more than 11 foreign players in the squad and a maximum of four foreign players should be in the playing eleven.
A minimum of 14 Indian players must be included in each squad.
A minimum of six players from the BCCI under-22 pool must be included in each squad.
