Mulling possibility of holding next WPL in Diwali window, says Jay Shah

The Women's Premier League (WPL) will be played in the home-away format from the next edition onwards with a bigger window, most likely during Diwali, BCCI secretary Jay Shah said on Friday. The inaugural edition of the tournament was held here from March 4-26 across two venues in Mumbai. "We are mulling the possibility of scheduling the WPL, in the home and away format, in the Diwali window; not two seasons in a year but just a different time window," Shah said during an interaction with mediapersons. "Women's cricket now has a dedicated audience base and this number will only keep growing as we expect an encouraging turnout at the next WPL." Seeking feedback on Asia Cup venue from participating nations ======================================= While Shah had earlier made it clear that India will not travel to Pakistan to play the Asia Cup, he also said that feedback from other nations have been sought on a possible replacement venue. "We are awaiting feedback from other natio

WPL to be held in February with bigger window, home and away format: Report

The Women's Premier League will be played in the home-away format from the next edition onwards with a bigger window, most likely in February, a source in the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) informed on Friday. The inaugural edition of the tournament was held here from March 4-26 across two venues in Mumbai. Earlier this month, IPL chairman Arun Dhumal had told PTI that WPL will remain a five-team tournament for the next three seasons and it will be staged in the home and away format as that was "important for building a fan base". The BCCI source however said it would be tough to take the league to tier-2 cities such as Indore, which doesn't have a WPL franchise named after it. The source added that the ongoing discussions also include postponing the WPL to later in the year, around Diwali, but nothing has been finalised. Indo-Pak World Cup venue and Asia Cup still being discussed ====================================== The BCCI will wait for the directives from the

Shafali took pitch out of equation against Gujarat Giants: Meg Lanning

Shafali Verma's sensational 76 not out off 28 balls in a small run chase for Delhi Capitals took even her inspirational skipper Meg Lanning by surprise. Lanning admitted that explosive batter Shafali Verma produced a knock against Gujarat Giants on Saturday that no one saw coming in the Women's Premier League (WPL). After Marizanne Kapp's 4-0-15-5 blew away the Gujarat Giants, who could manage a mere 105/9 in their 20 overs, Shafali hammered five sixes and 10 fours in the company of Lanning (21 not out) to power Delhi Capitals to a 10-wicket win. I did not see that coming from Shafali, I do not think anyone did, said Lanning to the media after the match here at the DY Patil Stadium. She played to her strengths and got on a roll and when that happens in T20 cricket you just got to be going with it. The Delhi Capitals captain said the pitch assisted the pacers early on. The pitch was a new-ball wicket. The was a little bit (of help) there if you got it in the right areas which we f
