The '''2010 [[Indian Premier League]]''' season, abbreviated as '''IPL 3''' or the '''2010 IPL''', was the third season of the Indian Premier League, established by the [[Board of Control for Cricket in India]] (BCCI) in 2007. The tournament was hosted by [[India]] and had an estimated television audience of more than 200 million people in the country.<ref name="2billion">{{cite web |url=http://www.sportingo.com/all-sports/a11587_worlds-top-most-popular-team-sports |title=IPL attracts two billion viewers |date=16 May 2009 |work=sportingo |access-date=10 March 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100324173537/http://www.sportingo.com/all-sports/a11587_worlds-top-most-popular-team-sports |archive-date=24 March 2010 |url-status=dead}}</ref> It was played between 12 March and 25 April 2010. It was also the first ever cricket tournament that was broadcast live on [[YouTube]].<ref name="youtube">{{cite web|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ipl2010/content/story/445173.html |title=IPL matches to be broadcast live on Youtube |date=20 January 2010 |work=Cricinfo |access-date=21 January 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100123160437/http://www.espncricinfo.com/ipl2010/content/story/445173.html |archive-date=23 January 2010 |url-status=live }}</ref> The final four matches of the tournament were screened in [[3D television|3D]] across movie halls in India.<ref name="3D">{{cite web |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7q2JtX6v2XY |title=IPL goes 3D |date=25 January 2010 |work=Youtube |access-date=25 January 2010}}</ref>

The tournament was won by the [[Chennai Super Kings]], who defeated the [[Mumbai Indians]] in the final played at [[Mumbai]]. The purple cap went to [[Pragyan Ojha]] of [[Deccan Chargers]], while the orange cap and the player of the tournament award were awarded to [[Sachin Tendulkar]] of the Mumbai Indians. [[Saurabh Tiwary]] was declared the U-23 success of the tournament, while the Chennai Super Kings won the Fair Play.This is also the last edition where [[Page playoff system|page playoffs]] system wasn't used in the tournament and also the last edition where a team ending on 2nd place in the league stage didn't qualify for the IPL final and last time when both teams who played the final had not won the tournament before.

==Venues==
Five new venues were introduced for the third edition of IPL.<ref name="venue">{{cite web |url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ipl2010/content/current/story/419058.html |title=Four new venues announced for IPL's third season |date=11 August 2009 |work=Cricinfo |access-date=19 January 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100116144506/http://www.espncricinfo.com/ipl2010/content/current/story/419058.html |archive-date=16 January 2010 |url-status=live }}</ref> These included [[Nagpur]], [[Cuttack]], [[Mumbai]], [[Ahmedabad]] and [[Dharamsala, Himachal Pradesh|Dharamsala]]. Nagpur, Cuttack and 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, [[Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium|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 [[Telangana]] state succession.

The 60-game tournament also featured a third-place playoff between the losing semi-finalists as a qualifier for the [[2010 Champions League Twenty20|Champions League]] and also saw the induction of [[Indian Cricket League|ICL]] players.<ref name="venue" /> Both semi-finals were scheduled to be hosted in Bangalore but instead were played in Mumbai. The final and the third place playoff games were played at Mumbai and the season ended five days before the [[2010 ICC World Twenty20|World Twenty20]] in [[West Indies]].<ref name="venue" />

==Security concerns==
On 17 April, before the match between [[Royal Challengers Bangalore]] & [[Mumbai Indians]] started 2 bombs went off at [[M. Chinnaswamy Stadium]] 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 to [[DY Patil Stadium]] in [[Navi Mumbai]].<ref>[http://www.espncricinfo.com/ipl2010/content/current/story/456512.html IPL semi-finals moved to Mumbai]</ref> 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.<ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/cricket/8628079.stm IPL semis moved from Bangalore to Mumbai after blasts]</ref> Former cricketers Sir [[Ian Botham]], [[Brian Lara]], [[Steve Waugh]] and [[Shaun Pollock]] urged the players not to give in to terrorism by opting out of the league.<ref>[http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,15815_6013556,00.html Former stars – IPL must go on]</ref>
