New Delhi: The unfinished part of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 will be held in the United Arab Emirates. This has been formally decided in the Special General Meeting (SGM) of the Board of Control for Cricket in India.
In a statement on Saturday, BCCI general secretary Jay Shah said due to the monsoon season in India in the months of September-October, the board has made the decision to pick UAE.
“The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Saturday announced to complete the remaining matches of VIVO Indian Premier League 2021 season in the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E) considering the monsoon season in India in the months of September-October this year,” Shah said in a statement.
The members unanimously agreed to resume IPL.
Additionally, the BCCI is also going to seek more time from the International Cricket Council (ICC) before it takes a call on hosting of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in India considering the coronavirus situation in the country.
