The Cricket Board of India (BCCI) will discuss various issues including IPL, T20 World Cup at the special general meeting (SGM) to be held online on Saturday. In the meeting, it may decide to hold the remaining matches of the IPL from 15 September to 15 October in the UAE. At the same time, the issue of the T20 World Cup will also be important in the meeting. In addition, the delayed compensation package for domestic cricketers for the last season of the ICC T20 World Cup and the canceled Ranji Trophy could be discussed.
BCCBai wants to host the T20 World Cup in India itself and during the ICC (International Cricket Council) board meeting on June 1, it will take the status of Covid-19 in India before making any decision to this global body of sports. Will wait for you to review it.
BCCI President Sourav Ganguly is expected to preside over the meeting from Mumbai on Saturday. The IPL is expected to resume between September 18 and 20 and end on October 10. The UAE will host matches at three venues in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Sharjah.
A senior BCCI official told PTI a day before the meeting, "Obviously, the main issue will be the IPL schedule. We are expecting 10 double-headers (two bouts a day) and seven single headers (one match a day) in addition to four play-off matches (two qualifiers, one eliminator), including the final. The league will start over the weekend and the finals will also be held over the weekend.
There will also be a lot of discussion on other related aspects including taking services of foreign players and bubble-to-bubble transfer (moving from one bio-safe environment to another bio-safe environment). "England Cricket Board Director of Cricket Ashley Giles has already said that players of his country will not be allowed to play IPL as they will follow international commitments before the ICC T20 World Cup," he said. The Indian team will end its tour of England on 14 September and arrive in the UAE by chartered aircraft from there.
In this meeting, 700 players have been affected due to the canceled Ranji season due to Covid-19, it will also be discussed. The BCCI had assured financial assistance to the players in January last year but did not disclose its method. An official associated with the state unit (Ranji team) said, 'Only 73 cricketers playing domestic cricket have IPL contracts. Just playing Vijay Hazare and Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy will not fulfill their financial needs. I think the best solution to this would be to submit a lump sum compensation package to the state units and distribute them among their players as per the previous session. '
