CHENNAI SUPER KINGS have reacted less than enthusiastically to the idea of an Indian Premier League edition with only Indian players, given the unprecedented situation created by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The IPL, which is indefinitely postponed, can be held in the September-October window if the T20 World Cup in Australia which is scheduled for October, is called off.
“CSK is not keen to do an IPL with only Indian players. That way it would be playing another Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy [domestic T20 competition]. The franchise has not been in touch with the BCCI of late as the situation is worsening,” a CSK source told PTI on condition of anonymity.
“Let’s hope we can have the IPL later this year,” he however added.
