The decision was taken at a Special General Meeting (SGM) held virtually, where members unanimously agreed to resume IPL.
The Indian Premier League (IPL) will resume in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in the third week of September, according to the BCCI’s Special General Meeting (SGM) on Saturday. The members also decided to maintain UAE as a backup destination for the T20 World Cup later this year, though the BCCI would ask the ICC to hold off on making a final decision for at least another month.
“As for the IPL resuming, the members have consented to it relocating out to UAE (for the remaining 31 matches) because September is still peak monsoon,” he added.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced on Saturday that the remaining matches of the VIVO Indian Premier League 2021 season will be played in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) due to the monsoon season in India in September and October this year, according to a press release from the BCCI.
When Covid entered the bubble, the IPL was postponed after 29 games. It will resume following India’s five-match Test series in England, which ends on September 14. With India in the midst of the second wave of the epidemic, there is some uncertainty about hosting the T20 World Cup in the country, but the BCCI stated that its members are optimistic. The BCCI will make its decision public.
