The Indian Premier League (IPL) tournament is being considered in the United Arab Emirates in September after the T20 World Cup was postponed in Australia due to the corona virus epidemic.
According to the French news agency AFP, IPL chairman Brijesh Patel has said that the cricket control board is waiting for the approval from the government.
The Indian board is confident that eight teams from around the world will be brought together for the tournament from September to November. If that happens, it will be the second time the UAE has hosted the IPL again in six years.
According to media reports, IPL matches will run from September 26 to November 7.
Patel did not say whether the matches would be played behind closed doors. The final decision will be taken by the UAE and Indian authorities.
He earns more money from IPL than Indian Cricket Board. According to the board, if this year's tournament does not take place, they will lose کروڑ 500 million.
The tournament, which is being played in other stadiums in the country with a population of 1.3 billion, could raise ارب 11 billion for India's economy.
The 13th IPL was scheduled to start on March 29, but it had to be postponed several times due to the nationwide lockdown caused by the corona virus.
In the current situation, holding a tournament in India is not without danger.
