The Rising Pune Supergiants (RPS) are a cricket team based in Pune, Maharashtra, India that plays in the Indian Premier League starting 2016. The team along with Gujarat Lions will feature as two-season replacements for Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals, who are suspended for two seasons due to the involvement in illegal betting by their respective owners. The franchise is owned by RP-Sanjiv Goenka Group controlled by Sanjiv Goenka. The team name was announced on 18 January 2016 by Goenka in Kolkata and Raghu Iyer was appointed CEO.
The Rising Pune Supergiants' home ground is the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. However, controversies arose over holding 2016 IPL games in Maharashtra due to water usage of the cricket stadiums during severe drought and the Bombay High Court ordered all matches in May to be shifted out of the state. On 15 April 2016, it was reported that the Rising Pune Supergiants were considering the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Vishakhapatnam as an alternate home ground.
