The gold issue is under investigation and it nowhere related to cricket. I do not think that will be a problem as Indian government has good relations with UAE.

The proposed ODI will get cancelled as all other series have been in the past by BCCI.

The BCCI is planning to conduct the ODI series (against South Africa) in the UAE right after the IPL. They need the government permission for that. As I said earlier, I have suspicion that the Indian government may be a bit skeptical about allowing the Indian national team to play at Sharjah, but then the prospect of earning good amounts of tax revenue should swing their decision.

Sharjah is known for all the wrong things that happened in the past in Indian cricket. IPL being very lucrative can attract again those controversies. The onus will be on BCCI and the government will blame BCCI for any wrong doing. Why will then the government stop the tournament.

Of course money is main reason that is why BCCI has decided to conduct the tournament in UAE and that will be the same reason why government will allow it.

It is better to not watch it in my opinion since the interest level would be really low especially without the audience, cheer-leaders etc as you mentioned. Fireworks are a big part of the appeal surrounding IPL.

The aesthetic appeal of a big event will be compromised without a doubt and i can see that while watching premier league and other soccer leagues and for IPL the audience level and the extravaganza was the big appeal to attract television audience around the globe and in a situation like this we do not have nothing much going on in our life to watch and viewership ratings of any sporting events are high and it can help them in that aspect.

Don't get your hopes high too soon. The BCCI still needs permission from the government to conduct the tournament in UAE.

The Indian Premier League (IPL) governing council chairman Brijesh Patel on Tuesday confirmed that the 2020 edition of the tournament is shifting to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the BCCI has requested the government of India for an approval on the same. TOI understands that the Emirates Cricket Board (ECB) hasn't been "officially" notified on the matter yet as the said official letter is pending. A governing council meeting of the IPL is expected on July 24, following which an air of finality can prevail.

As long as the Indian government sits on the approval, there will be no surety. I understand that there is a recent controversy surrounding UAE, related to gold smuggling to India using diplomatic channels. So there is a real chance that the government will refuse the permission.

Another issue is the proposed ODI series between India and South Africa, immediately after the IPL. The government approval is needed for this as well.

It seems today must be the bigger day for all T20 lovers as there are some unofficial statements about the possibilities of having IPL's this year edition (13th edition if I am not mistaken) in UAE. After the 2020's T20I world cup was postponed, the chances for IPL is rising up but we need to wait until BCCI declares about the confirmation of the same.

You guys don't seem to understand the current COVID situation in India. The cases are rising like crazy there everyday and any country would be hesitant to allow Indian citizens since the chances of the virus affecting them are high which is why I doubt UAE would grant permission easily.

The specialty this time around will be there will be no audience and no cheer girls or the party mood and the extravaganza of the big event will be lost with all the restrictions.

I remember there were previously one edition was played in UAE and some Australian players were dominating completely as they were adopting the conditions more easily whereas the usual IPL dominant team like CSK were not competing up to the level how they do play while playing in India. That editions' UAE leg was complete different from India leg in terms of few players' performances. If this year edition will be fully to be played in UAE then I guess it would be a complete different IPL than its all previous editions.

I do not remember any IPL conducted in the UAE earlier but i remember one time they shifted the tournament to South Africa and i do remember that tournament because that was the first time i saw most of the matches live and came to know about the level of competition. The specialty this time around will be there will be no audience and no cheer girls or the party mood and the extravaganza of the big event will be lost with all the restrictions.

I read somewhere that broadcaster want to cover Diwali slot (14 Nov) as well, can't find report and BCCI want to conclude IPL season soon (7th Nov) due to Ind-Aus series ( Reasons : mandatory 14- days quarantine, practice games etc).

What is diwali slot, there is nothing going on during this period and that will continue till November as well.

He was facing 2 year ban but ICC reduced his ban to 1 year and he should be available to intl cricket from Oct 2020 so there is some chance.

Hopefully he has maintained his fitness during these time so that it will be easier for him to resume cricket once the ban is lifted, if not it is a struggle to resume anything in life if you are not doing anything for a year.

Shakib is banned so he can't play any domestic or international league. Just hoping it will happen becoz Cricket World Cup also got cancelled.

Since his ban will be over by that time he is lucky enough to play the T20 world which is postponed to next year.

All set and IPL is ready to go in around Sep-Nov in UAE. They are asking Gov permission, Plus broadcaster and BCCI arguing over schedule, dates. Stay tune for details..

The broadcasters will have a problem with the scheduling, may be they are not planning to give out the amount that is offered earlier, we have seen these sort of issues with Series A broadcasting where they were not willing to pay the full amount to the clubs citing schedules.

Shakib (Ban) should join as well, no reports yet tho.
Sri Lankan board recently denied NOC to players for CPL, so situation is not clear.

What is the situation with shakib al hasan will the ban be over by that time. When it comes to IPL the Sri Lankan cricket board might give the NOC as they might not be interested in having any battles with the BCCI.

I only have one question will international players also play? or only domestic players will be part of IPL 2020.

Australian + South African + New Zealander + Afghani + Windies players are coming for sure.

If English players are free then they might join as well (Ben stokes + Buttler + Bairstow are confirmed due to their good relations with their franchise)

Expected this from a mile away. The pandemic continues to wreak havoc across the world and the chances of hosting these big draw tournaments kept dropping with time. BCCI still believes there is a chance for IPL at the end of this year desperately.

They stand to lose 4000 crores if IPL gets cancelled this year. I don't see how they can host the IPL this year and keep all the players from getting infected simultaneously in India where community transmission is the big problem currently.

Countries all over the world are gradually restarting their economy. Even cricket boards are planning various tournaments and bilateral tours in the coming months. Currently West Indies is touring England and the Pakistan team has also reached there. So I don't think that we should cancel or postpone all the tournaments until the COVID 19 virus is eradicated.

Now coming back to the T20 World Cup, the Australian government was sympathetic to staging the tournament sometime later this year. But then the cricket board was not very keen on that and made some public statements regarding the same. Now I am not sure what happened, but my guess is that CA got a sweet deal from the BCCI.

Most chances BCCI sweet deal done his magic and this world cup postponed because currently Australian domestic Rugby and soccer leagues doing good and they was able to have this Twenty/20 world cup also but IPL2020 was much higher demanded so they have good package from them and then cancel this all to give good way BCCI.

Cricket matches are not yet 100% free from match fixing. Recently, a number of players were banned after an investigation by the ICC found that match fixing took place during the Qatar T10 League. The same happened in 2019 with the Karnataka Premier League as well. And previously, there were instances within the IPL itself, when the team owners were found to be fixing matches.

Sharjah still remains as the hub of match fixers and that's the reason I think the BCCI will never allow any visits by the Indian national team to that city in the near future. The IPL is another topic altogether.

There might be spot fixing in cricket and there is no way that an established player is going to take money as they are making huge financial benefits playing cricket including advertisement and other revenues, earlier the pay scale was not that huge and we might expect players falling for these but now a days it is really hard because of the consequences and the amount of money they are going to loose and on top of that jail sentence. Small tournaments can be manipulated but not the big leagues.

ICC is now very strict on match fixing issue. No player is exempted, we can see the case of world number one all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan, he does not involve in match fixing but he has been banned for 1 year for hiding match fixer information to the ICC. from this we can understand that how much strict ICC on this issue. so, I don't think, if IPL will be held in UAE or Sharjah, no one will dare to do match fixing.

That's true. I don't want to divert the topic and talk about Shakib, but still I think that he was made a scapegoat by the BCB.
