The board headed by Sourav Ganguly is interested in hosting the tournament in India. The Syed Mustaq Ali T20 Trophy is scheduled to end on January 31.
As expected, this year's IPL auction is going to be held on 18 February. The auction will be held in Chennai. The news was announced through the official Twitter handle of IPL on Wednesday. It is yet to be decided whether India or the United Arab Emirates will host this year's IPL.
The board headed by Sourav Ganguly is interested in hosting the tournament in India. The Syed Mustaq Ali T20 Trophy is scheduled to end on January 31. So far there has been no problem in organizing that tournament. That success will also be discussed.
"We are insisting on hosting the tournament in India, "A board official told PTI. But the situation will also be discussed. The situation of Syed Mustaq Ali will also be discussed. The Emirates Cricket Board has already invited us to host the tournament there."
For a long time, Indian cricket fans have been deprived of the taste of going to the field and watching the game. Like last time, this time too, the board is trying its best so that they do not have to watch IPL on TV. However, last time the number of TV viewers broke all records. The board also saw the face of profit by organizing the tournament in pandemic.
