Switchblade Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Gambhir will not play Umesh. Vinnie would be the preferred choice. I don't even support KKR due to Srk it was painful to see Gauti go to KKR as it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StriKe Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Feck. How about Canada and all? Has BCCI formally said that SL and BD are the next options? NEW DELHI: With the dates of the general elections finalised, IPL chairman Ranjib Biswal on Wednesday said 60 to 70 per cent matches in the seventh edition of the Twenty20 tournament will be held in India. The decision to host "bulk of the matches" in India was taken after a meeting of BCCI bigwigs, including its president N Srinivasan, senior vice-president Rajeev Shukla, secretary Sanjay Patel, Biswal and IPL CEO Sundar Raman at a city hotel. Biswal insisted that since IPL is a domestic event, their main objective is to conduct majority of the matches in India. "Now that the elections dates have been finalised, we are working towards hosting bulk of the matches in India. Since it is the Indian Premier League we need to accommodate as many matches in India," Biswal told reporters after coming out from a meeting of the IPL governing council at a city hotel. "Today, we discussed about foreign venues but we haven't decided yet as we need couple of days more to finalise the offshore venue," he said. The election commission today announced the dates of the 16th Lok Sabha polls, which will be held on nine days from April 7 to May 12 in the highest number of phases so far. The counting of votes in all the 543 Lok Sabha constituencies involving an 81.4 crore voters will be done on on May 16. According to sources in the BCCI, the Twenty20 event -- the window of which has been kept from April 9 to June 3 -- will be shifted to India after the counting of votes. "After May 16 IPL 7 matches will be held in India. But South Africa as an alternate venue has effectively been ruled out since South Africa wanted to host the entire tournament," a source said. Besides South Africa, United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Bangladesh were the other countries which are in fray to host part of IPL 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 SA would have been great.They should have agreed to host full IPL there.Half-2 is poor. Now I hope its in Aus or NZ.They have good indian population and it'll be popular there.Also we'll get an idea about our young player in those conditions in respect of WC. Holding in any countries in the poll would be epic :fail: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 What kind of security do these matches need that they can't be held at the same time as elections? Can't they anyways hire private security? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sachin=GOD Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 What kind of security do these matches need that they can't be held at the same time as elections? Can't they anyways hire private security? In almost every match there are around 40000-50000 spectators so a considerable security presence is needed in India. With elections happening, most of the state security forces (along with CRPF, RAF etc) will be busy. AFAIK there is no private security firm in India which can provide security on such a large scale and spread over so many cities so private security isn't really an option.

Holding in any countries in the poll would be epic :fail: Timing will be a major issue that's why these two will never be able to host IPL plus they have their rugby season at this time so stadium are used for that purpose.Would have loved South Africa though but since its out of contention Bangladesh is fine.

adi B Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 my vote goes to pakistan,it would have been hilarious to see the fan following over there for the IPL..but i think UAE will be the best choice out of the following but it'll be damn hot,SL is just horrible,bangladesh seems to be the only viable choice (the crowds will be good as well).. i have no doubts,IPL will be back in india by 10th may Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidhoni Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Has to be in SA. No logic if they have it in one country for majority but shift it to India for the last crucial stages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
