BCCI ready to hold the remaining matches of IPL, England series will start ahead of schedule!

New Delhi. The current season of IPL 2021 had to be postponed after 29 matches. 31 matches are yet to take place. If the remaining T20 League matches are not played, then BCCI will lose Rs 2500 crore. For this reason, the board is looking for a window for the event in the last three weeks of September. The board is in talks with the English board to start a week earlier than the India vs England series.

According to the news of Cricinfo, the BCCI has written a letter to the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) this week to start the England series a week earlier. However, till now the BCCI has not received any reply from the English Board. If we look at the current schedule, the series of India and England is to start from 4 August. The series ends on September 14. If the series starts a week ago, it will end by 7 September.

According to the BCCI, if the Test series ends on September 7, then the remaining matches of the IPL can be held in the last three weeks of September. More matches of two matches can be done in a day. It is to be organized before the T20 World Cup. The T20 World Cup can be held from the middle of October to the 14th of November. India has to host the World Cup. But due to the corona it can be shifted to UAE.

The ECB is organizing The Hundred from July 21 to August 21. In such a situation, by doing the test series a week before, it will have to prepare the bio bubble, hotel, broadcaster schedule and ticket sales all afresh. Players will also be tired. Because the test series will continue with The Hundred. India and the English Board have good relations. In such a situation, the schedule of the series may change.
