The BCCI is set to conduct the remaining matches of IPL 2021 in the UAE after the England tour. The current season of IPL was postponed after 29 matches and 31 matches are yet to be held.
The Cricket Board of India (BCCI) is preparing to hold the remaining matches of IPL 2021 in the UAE. The remaining matches of IPL 2021 can be started from 19 or 20 September, while the final match will be played on 10 October in the UAE. However, during this period, England and Australia players are unlikely to participate in the IPL. Ashley Giles, the managing director of the England cricket team, has clearly stated that none of their players will play in the remaining matches of the IPL.
ENGLAND AND AUSTRAILA PLAYER MIGHT NOT AVAILABLE
According to the report published in ESPN Cricinfo, Giles said. “We will definitely give rest to our players but not to play IPL.” We have decided our schedule and now we want our best players to be ready for the T20 World Cup and Ashes. On the other hand, Australian players have to play 3 to 4 series before the T20 World Cup, which makes it difficult for its players to go to UAE.
First of all, the Australian team has to go on a tour of the West Indies, where it will play the 5-match T20 series and the 3-match ODI series. Many important players are not going to the West Indies with the team because they have been in the bio bubble for quite some time. These players also include Pat Cummins, David Warner and Daniel Symes. Daniel Symes had withdrawn his name from the Windies tour due to mental pressure. After the West Indies tour, the Australian team can go to Bangladesh.
In the IPL 2021, 12 players from England and 18 players from Australia were playing. In this, England captain Ion Morgan is leading the Kolkata Knight Riders. If the players of Australia and England do not play IPL, then the most problem will be Delhi Capitals, Punjab Kings and Rajasthan Royals. Rajasthan’s team is completely dependent on Ben Stokes, Joffra Archer and Jose Butler.
