Ahmedabad: For the next IPL, Ahmedabad and Lucknow are the front-runners for two new franchises.
Adani Group is likely to bid for the Ahmedabad franchise even as the all powerful Glazer family, Manchester United owners, have also picked up ITT (Invitation for Tender) whose deadline was extended by the BCCI till October 20. The bidding process for the two new IPL teams will be taking place on October 25 with the top two bidders picking up the rights.
“Pursuant to requests from various interested parties, BCCI has now decided to further extend the date for purchasing the ITT document till October 20, 2021,” a BCCI release had said.
