The remaining 16 Indian Premier League games can be completed during the 10 to 12 days window in September, as the Asia Cup is now uncertain about the growing armed hostility between India and Pakistan.
It would be a miracle if the Asia Cup, which is to host India (at an allegedly neutral place), continues due to a raging conflict that has been launched by 26 people in a terrorist attack in Pahalgam Jammu and Kashmir. Almost non -existent sports bonds are unlikely to continue at any level until the tension is released.
The Asian Cup got a 19-day window in September, where at least two Indo-Pak matches were to take place from the possibility of the final clash between bitter opponents, which would provide operators of high advertising income.
“It is an extremely bad optics if cricket continues when there is a possibility of war with a rogue nation (Pakistan). Sport can continue when everything is normal. Moreover, it is very natural for foreign players and coaches to be careful and wanting to return home.”
By the way, the Asian cricket council is now headed by the Pakistani chairman of the cricket board of Mohsin Naqvi and it will be on it to deal with the financial losses that would cause the cancellation of the Asian Cup.
It is understood that the decision of the BCCI The highest brass suspension of the league was a well thought out call, because only a handful of matches left that can be completed in a 10 -day window with possible double headings.
Options for BCCI?
IPL has a reserved window from late March to May, during which no international cricket is planned to allow the best of the world cricket to think about their trade in the league. Now that the schedule has taken place Haywire, the BCCI will have to explore the available options.
The Indian team will travel around England from the first of June to the first of August and this schedule cannot be changed.
The only period that looks good now is between second and September, where BCCi can also deal with different cricket boards to allow their players (except for independent staff who do not need permission) to return and complete the task.
Why not August?
India has in August A series of white balls six matches against Bangladesh which could be stopped for IPL. The cricket council in England and Wales (ECB), however, will be played between 5 and 31 August, where most of the best T20 players who also play in IPL.
Most of the IPL franchise owners, such as the Reliance and the RPSG Group, bought bets in “The Sto”.
Australia will also host the Republic of South Africa for a series of six White Ball games during August, so players from both countries will not be available.
Why is September the best choice
From August 15 to September 22, the Caribbean Premier League will be held, where some of the best West Indies players will participate. During September September, however, a fair number of Western India players can be made available for its relevant IPL teams.
England and South Africa have six white ball matches from 2 to 14 to 14 September. Given the cordial relationship that BCCI shares with both the ECB and the cricket South Africa, it can ask players to release their teams IPL during the window.
After all, the SA20 is also a league that leads an investment from IPL franchise.
At the end of September, the Indian WTC (World Championships in the World Championship) will begin against Western India and South Africa to follow in October November finding a white ball in Australia.
