“The BCCI is currently working on the much-awaited Women’s IPL. We are expecting to start the first season early next year,” Ganguly wrote in the letter dated September 20.
PTI had last month reported that the tournament is likely to take place in March after the Women’s T20 World Cup in South Africa.
The men’s IPL will return to the home-and-away format from the 2023 season, confirmed BCCI president Sourav Ganguly. He conveyed it to the state units. Due to COVID, IPL has been held only at some fixed venues.
Due to COVID, IPL has been held only at some fixed venues.
In 2021 too, the tournament was held across four venues — Delhi, Ahmedabad, Mumbai and Chennai.
The abating of the pandemic-related risk has ensured that the league can now return to the old format where each team plays one home and one away match.
“The next season of men’s IPL will also go back to the home and away format with all ten teams playing their home matches at their designated venues,” read a Ganguly’s note to state units.
The note gave them a “snapshot” of the ongoing domestic season.
The BCCI is conducting a full-fledged domestic season for the first time since 2020 and all multi-day tournaments will also return to the traditional home and away format.
