When we have Day Night Odi Games starting at 2.30pm we should not have any issues IPL games starting at 3pm

Subject to approval from the television broadcasters Star India, the BCCI is likely to change the timing for the IPL matches from the upcoming season, with the 8pm match game beginning at 7 instead & also Mid Season Window Player Transfer approved by all Franchises.
IPL Proposes 7pm Start for Night Games, Mid-Season Transfers Approved

I don't like the idea as it is my studying time 7 to 8 pm.I will have to change it:angry:

Harsha made a great point otherwise we will have to pay for 2 channels if 4pm and 7pm match start

otherwise we will have to pay for 2 channels if 4pm and 7pm match start

Of course they are not going to start a match before the earlier one gets over. It will affect the viewership significantly.

Oh yeah!!! Cant wait to see Dhoni again in yellow jersey!!! CSK should some how get Dhoni, Raina, Ashwin, Jadeja and Bravo. Either through retention or RTM or by winning the bid. BMac and Dwyane Smith will be a bonus and notcto forget our very own Murali Vijay. Personally every ex-CSKian will be an asset to lift the trophy again!

Officially Now


IPL franchises will be able to retain a maximum of five players through a combination of pre-auction retention and Right To Match (RTM) cards, the governing council of the tournament resolved on Wednesday (December 6).

The five players secured can include any combination of retention and right-to-match cards with not more than three in either category. That means a franchise not opting to directly retain any player will still be allowed only a maximum of three RTMs at the player auction.

With Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals returning to the fold, the GC announced that: "The player pool available for CSK and RR for retention/RTM will be the players' who played for them respectively in IPL 2015 and who were part of RPS and GL squads in IPL 2017."

"The player pool available for CSK and RR for retention/RTM will be the players' who played for them respectively in IPL 2015 and who were part of RPS and GL squads in IPL 2017."

What happens if a team retains a player who played for CSK/RR in 2015 but CSK/RR want that player back. Although highly unlikely as most of the important players were in RPS/GL like Dhoni, Raina, Steve Smith, Ashwin, Jadeja, Bravo, Rahane, Faulkner.

One such player that comes to my mind is Watson. He was an important player for RR and now plays for RCB, although don't think any of these 2 teams would want him that eagerly now.

Whom will MI retain directly ? - Rohit, Bumrah and probably Hardik.

Player Retention Should have not been there it would have made Auction Very Interesting
