The remaining Indian Premier League matches will be held in the UAE in September and October, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) said on May 29.
This is owing to the precarious spike of COVID-19 in India. IPL tournament was suspended in early May after many players tested positive.
The tournament dates are yet to be finalised. It is expected to be played in a three-week window.
The BCCI said that it was moving the remaining matches to the UAE because of the monsoon season in September-October although the monsoon generally runs from June to mid-September.
The UAE had been the stage for all of last year’s IPL matches.
The World Cup is also due to be held in India from October but it is also at risk owing to the pandemic. The BCCI has asked for more time to decide on the hosting of ICC T20 World Cup 2021. The tournament is likely to be discussed by the ICC next week.
