Moving the IPL to the United Kingdom, according to Kevin Pietersen, will be the right choice since there is a window in September, only after England hosts India in a five-match Test series that ends on September 14.
Former England captain Kevin Pietersen wants the remaining matches of this year’s postponed Indian Premier League to be shifted to the United Kingdom in September, instead of the UAE.
“There is a window in September after the England vs India Test series has finished. All the best Indian players would already be there, and all of the best English players would be available as well,” Pietersen wrote in a column for Betway.

There is also a good chance that crowds will be allowed in the grounds. and there will be great atmospheres. “The IPL has been to the UAE; it’s been to South Africa, and I think England would now be the perfect place to house the remaining fixtures,” Pietersen said.
