Delhi: The Indian Premier League is unarguably the most popular franchise-based cricket tournament in the world. Keeping the tournament's massive following across the globe in mind, Rajeev Shukla (chairman) has confrimed that BCCI are planning to organise a mini-version of the tournament, with UAE being considered as the most favoured destination.
Speaking to Gulf News during the ICC Champions Trophy in Edgbaston, Shukla said, "One concept that we are deliberating and considering is launching a mini edition of the IPL overseas. We have seen that there is huge attraction for IPL overseas. Earlier, we used to stage our Champions League T20 abroad and that slot is still vacant. We are thinking of a mini edition in that slot."
