BCCI and ECB United to stop the Saudi T20 league, ICC also requested
The Council of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) targeted the Saudi -T20 league and decided not to support the project. The boards of these two countries turned hands on to stop the Saudi T20 league. This means that these two countries will not give NOCs to their players to join the Saudi -T20 league. It is said that $ 400 million (about Rs 3442 crore) will be invested in the Saudi -T20 league. Saudi will protest the T20 league, the news agency PTI quoted a report from the British newspaper The Guardian, saying that the ECB and BCCI agreed to unite to resist the new league during the final of the World Test Championship (WTC) that played at Lord’s this month. Both boards agreed that they would not give their players a no objection certificate (NOC) to join the new competition. Both boards will also advocate the ICC to stop their support. Advertising Australia showed interest, and on the other hand, Cricket Australia seemed eager to work with Saudi investors in the league. According to this report, the SRJ sports investment in Saudi Arabia, according to the plan announced by Australia, promised to invest $ 400 million for the establishment of the new league. In this, eight teams play four tournaments in various places each year, compared to the Grand Slam of tennis. CA’s main purpose is to make a profit from a private investor, as the Big Bash League (BBL) franchise is owned by the governing body and the states. Will ICC president go against BCCI? The report also claimed that the ICC is currently running former BCCI secretary Jai Shah, so he is unlikely to go against the will of BCCI in this case. Share this story -tags
