The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has reportedly told all
the IPL franchises that no team can fly to the UAE before August 20 for the
upcoming tournament. The thirteenth edition of the competition will get
underway on September 19 with the final set to take place on November 10, the
IPL Governing Council confirmed on Sunday.
Recent reports suggested that last year’s finalists – Mumbai Indians
(MI) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) – were looking to leave for Abu Dhabi around
August 10 or 12. However, the BCCI’s latest decision has forced them to change
their plans. A franchise official has said that the IPL GC has sent in a mail
which has clearly told them that the teams can leave for UAE not before August
20.
“We have been informed by a mail from the IPL GC
that we can leave for UAE after August 20. So, there is no question of anyone
going there before that. The diktat is pretty clear here,” the official was
quoted as saying by IANS.
Franchises still waiting for
SOPs:
While the BCCI has issued the Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) to the
state associations for the resumption of cricket on Sunday, the IPL teams are
yet to receive it. The franchises are expecting to get it soon so that they can
start their final preparations for the competition.
“We have not got the SOPs yet, but we have been
given the go-ahead to start preparation and the visa process will start from
tomorrow onward. The hotels have already been blocked so that is no issue. The
blueprints are ready,” the franchise official said.
