Why why why??? Can't believe Dhoni announced his retirement so early before the T20 WC. So disappointed that now IPL is the last then. Next year he may stop playing for IPL too. I so hate not seeing him Sad

@JSRAW yea 5 ODI and T20 each is bit to much to watch between the same teams, and limiting this series will make it more entertaining and competitive at the same time. Furthermore I don’t know much about the UAE quarantine rules, but considering it’s IPL I wouldn’t be surprised if those player’s were allowed to skip the mandatory quarantine period, not saying that it’ll 100% happen but then again there’s always a possibility of it happening because of BCCI involvement.

The players may or may not be allowed to skip the quarantine rules. But keep in mind that this is the first major tournament since a long time. 8 teams are taking part. If you add the players, net bowlers, support staff.etc, the total contingent from each team would amount to at least 50-60 individuals. It is upto the team, whether they want to take the risk by skipping the quarantine rules for one or two players.

Now this will create new headache for the IPL franchises. The English/Australian players who take part in this series need to be quarantined before they are allowed to participate in the tournament. That means that they will miss the first half of this year's edition. And I don't understand the purpose of this short series. They could have gone for 5 ODIs and 5 ODIs, as the quarantine requirements remain same irrespective of the duration of the series.
English board scheduling series after series Windies>Ireland>Pakistan>Australia so its understandable and there is no 14 days mandatory quarantine for Australian players in the UK. (as per uk's gov guidelines), another factor for 1 short tour. 5 ODI/T-20 series seems bit long IMO.

Not full tournament though, only one week of action after reaching UAE as there is only 6 days quarantine policy. so they might miss approx 8-10 days of IPL overall.
This will make the tournament a little bit weird I think. We will not see the actual color of the tournament of course. I will have hard time betting without the familiar faces.

For starting phase, yeah.

Australia tour of England got the green light from the both boards and they are ready to play 3 T-20 and 3 ODI series next month (3rd Sep- 16th Sep). Schedule clashing a bit with the IPL and some premiere players might miss few games of the IPL due to quarantine rules.
Australia tour of England in September confirmed

Overall 17 players from Australia and 11 players from England are playing in the IPL. Amost all of them I guess will be playing this series, so most probably they will miss IPL this time.

Yeah Patanjali can but, there is an issue with its finances after they acquired Ruchi Soya. If they agree on the title spopsorship then the opposition political parties in India will make it an issue and after the recent COVID19 medicine scandal I do not think they will be interested in it.

I still believe it will be Amazon as they have been aggressively focusing into Indian market after Flipkart was aqquired by one of their biggest competitors.   

From what I have heard, BCCI is heading for big trouble. Some of the politicians have requested the BCCI to drop their links with companies which are having "links" with China. And this list includes Byju’s, Dream11 and PayTM. This is getting really irritating now. Why can't these politicians concentrate on their field and leave cricket alone?

BTW, if sources are to be believed, Patanjali hasn't shown much interest lately in sponsoring the IPL. The main contenders, as of now are Amazon.in, MyCircle11, Unacademy, Dream11 and Byju’s. 
If politicians interfering too much then surely its going to hit very badly because this is not good sign every time when politicians stand against any thing they destroy this badly so now time for government of India to hit back and stop this non sense because now IPL is big brand and its need to develop more without this politics like we have many Leagues in other Asian countries.

This will surely hit hard the IPL brand, I was always in favor of VIVO continuing the title sponsorship but things have already turned bad in India with the anti chinese sentiments . BCCI is desperate and I am pretty sure they will go with Amazon this time.

Looks like BCCI is desperate to finalize new sponsors currently.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/m.timesofindia.com/sports/cricket/ipl/top-stories/ipl-sponsorship-bcci-looks-to-raise-rs-300cr-in-middle-of-raging-pandemic/amp_articleshow/77496159.cms

I hope Amazon becomes the new sponsor. They will probably finalize a deal very soon based on the article though they will only recover 75% of the losses from the VIVO deal.

Already mentioned this in my previous posts. The VIVO deal collapse was a big hit to BCCI and this was always coming, but many people here acted like it wouldn't be a big deal.

Yes, this makes sense that Amazon is already on top and would not do so. Patanjali seems to the one of the rights in this zone if they are ready to pay and good amount for the sponsorship and also, they have some good market to capture as well in various segments. Also, any idea who all are applied for this sponsorship?

Patanjali is trying to expand to the upper-middle class segment and IPL sponsorship may help them there. Also, it may give them a lot of exposure outside India (right now most of their sale is concentrated within the Indian subcontinent). The organic products sold by Patanjali, if properly marketed can have a loyal customer base in countries such as the UK, Australia and the US.

In opinion Amazon will be more interested in sponsoring the IPL title as the tournament is scheduled at the same time when they have their Great Indian sale. But, I do not think they would be willing to pay the same amount as VIVO did, BCCI has to compromise with the amount they are asking if they want to have a title sponsor for IPL.

The problem is that Amazon doesn't need a costly option such as the IPL. Amazon is already the second largest online retailer (with the gap between them and the no.1 ranked Flipkart less than 1%), and they are very popular in India. Vivo paid so much for sponsorship, because they are not among the market leaders in India (mobile market in India is dominated by Xiaomi and Samsung), and they wanted to increase their market share.

6 so far. I am working on finding a sponsor. I have two proposal already but still working to find a better and balanced one. We need to make this list of 10 users at-least.

In addition, the pot will be bigger this time. Honestly speaking the 1st place may walk away with $250 or more (not final yet, let me finish the deal with the sponsor first), so imagine how much we will be have in the pot.

Besides, we will have consolations prizes for round winners. So join the pool and fasten your seatbelt for a crazy ride. If you are still thinking to risk 0.001 BTC is too much then think twice because once the registration will be closed then you will have no chance to win the prize money :-D

A good news for IPL fans BCCI received approval from Indian government for conduct IPL in UAE now search for sponsor is going on https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/29632558/bcci-gets-government-go-ahead-conduct-tournament-uae

BCCI is hoping anything above 300 crore for the sponsorship and many companies have came forwarded with the proposal. The mostly likely of them would be the highest bidder among Baiju, Coca Cola India and Amazon. Even Patanjali is on the run for bid. The only question is how close would be the final bid to the VIVO's schedule sponsorship of 440 crores.

My conservative guess is that it is going to be somewhere around ₹100 crore, which would mean a decrease of 75% to 80%. Byju's recently entered in to a sponsorship deal with the BCCI for international matches, but I don't think that they have enough reserve funds remaining to go for another deal. Coke/Amazon may not be interested in such an expensive deal, because they don't need it. Patanjali maybe interested, but for them the potential returns from any such deal may not be that great.

In opinion Amazon will be more interested in sponsoring the IPL title as the tournament is scheduled at the same time when they have their Great Indian sale. But, I do not think they would be willing to pay the same amount as VIVO did, BCCI has to compromise with the amount they are asking if they want to have a title sponsor for IPL.
They already compromising about this because they now in current situation if they able to have some good deal its enough even not like VIVO because businesses suffering very badly and they have noe enough choice about this so they will have some good deal its ok for them and IPL this year's edition.
