Indian Premier League Chair Biswal Says BCCI Will Take More Time On IPL Venue Decision

Indian Premier League Governing Council Chair and Senior Board of Control for Cricket in India official Ranjib Biswal on Monday said that "the BCCI will take some more time before zeroing in on the off-shore venue for the seventh edition of the cash-rich league as discussions are still on with Union Home Ministry," according to the PTI. Biswal said, “We will announce the detailed itinerary of IPL after receiving the clearance from the Union Home Ministry on the issue of security during the matches in India." Speculations are on about possible off-shore venues with Bangladesh and the UAE "emerging as frontrunners." South Africa "is also in the reckoning but Biswal refused to divulge any information about the off-shore venues." Biswal: "I will only reveal the details once we get the okay from the home ministry" (PTI, 3/10).
