intra-state T20 leagues

MUMBAI: Close on the heels of the Board of Control for Cricket in India taking the "tone deaf" decision to grant permission to four of its affiliate associations - Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Mumbai and Saurashtra - to host their intra-state T20 leagues immediately after the conclusion of the Indian Premier League on May 30, said associations have reportedly seen the "writing on the wall".

A day after obtaining the go-ahead from the BCCI, three of the four states said they are not sure of conducting the leagues and one association has called off its tournament altogether.
