cндябеяs Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Mumbai: It's now official. The World Twenty20 championship in the West Indies has been postponed by a week. It will now be held from April 30 to May 16 next year as against the original dates of April 23 to May 9.The International Cricket Council has confirmed The postponement has helped the Indian Premier League (IPL) considerably. The IPL, one may note, will be held from March 18 to April 23. So is there a link between the postponement of the World T20 and the IPL schedule? It's anybody's conjecture but the coincidence is inescapable. No one is willing to come on record about the coincidence. "That is not significant. It was put off after a decision at the Board meeting in April. I don't know if there was a request from any party," ICC spokesman said. http://www.dnaindia.com/sport/report_icc-confirms-postponement-of-world-t20_1270602 Link to comment

DomainK Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 And once again, we will get into the T20 WC straight out of the IPL without allowing the team any time to regroup just after playing against each other. Bravo. Link to comment

Bravo.[/quote'] What is the need for ICC to hold a world event every year...beats me :hmmmm:. I am not saying IPL is bigger than the T20 WC but having the WC every year demeans itself.

I believe it is held earlier next time due to the ODI WC the following year. Link to comment
diegovegaz Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Lalit Modi cares :giggle: yeah, when is ipl '10 btw? Link to comment
DomainK Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Don't think it is every year. I believe it is held earlier next time due to the ODI WC the following year. If they had to avoid a clash with the ODI WC in 2011, they could have skipped one year of T20 WC instead of holding two in consecutive years. Link to comment
King Tendulkar Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Pk fans should be grateful to us. As we have ensured they stay world champs for 1 week longer. And those ungrateful sods say we never do anything for them Link to comment

Params7 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 It doesn't matter. India will get knocked out even earlier next year. There are teams that have the talent' date=' and there are teams that don't. India just doesn't. Your rebuilding after sachin's prime only lasted this far. so back to the stone age for you. hahahaha.[/quote'] People here really have got to start seeing behind these posts now.
