coffee_rules Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/bcci-asks-ecb-to-rejig-test-series-schedule-for-ipl-window-1263665 Quote he series opener in Trent Bridge from August 4-8 will, according to the current schedule, be followed by Tests at Lord's (August 12-16), Headingley (August 25-29), The Oval (September 2-6) and Old Trafford (September 10-14). If the final Test ends around September 7, it would give the BCCI a three-week window - which is how much time the board feels it needs - to complete the remaining 31 games. That would then allow time for international teams to converge for the T20 World Cup, which is to run from the middle of October and until November 14.

Lone Wolf Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Cricbuzz is saying ECB has received no such request lol. Who to trust I don't think any test will be scrapped. At best they'd move forward a week. Even then it would clash with their 100 tournament. So lots of moving pieces here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I6MTW Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 IPL before t20 wc is good practice for indian players, but depends on where t20 wc is going to be held this year. If it's UAE, then better to hold IPL in UAE right before t20 wc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally there should double headers whenever possible If only they had played more double headers, we could have finished at least 15-20 more matches before IPL was suspended. IIRC we had only 4-5 double headers. Most weekends also didn't have one. Greed of broadcasters will ultimately bite them in the back now. coffee_rules and beetle 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
