sage Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/ipl-2021-england-counties-offer-to-host-remainder-of-ipl-in-september-1262406 A group of English counties has offered to host the remainder of the IPL 2021 season in September this year. The MCC, Surrey and Warwickshire, who are based at Lord's, The Kia Oval (both London) and Edgbaston (Birmingham), respectively are understood to be part of the group who wrote to the ECB inviting them to extend the opportunity to the BCCI. The plans would see the tournament completed in around two weeks in the second half of September. Apart from simply completing the tournament, the counties point out that it would help top players to high-quality cricket heading into the T20 World Cup and ensure that pitches in the UAE - where the T20 World Cup could be played if it is moved from India - are fresh ahead of the global tournament. It might also broaden the UK market for the IPL. Vilander 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
