England`s centrally contracted players are likely to miss the remainder of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 wherever and whenever the tournament resumes, according to Ashley Giles, the managing director of England men`s team. The IPL governing council (GC) and Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) in an emergency meeting unanimously decided to postpone IPL 2021 season last week. BCCI is keen to tap the September window before the T20 World Cup to finish the league.
Speaking to ANI, a senior BCCI official in the know of developments had said that if the COVID-19 situation is under control in September, the 14th edition of the league can be completed. However, any rescheduling of the IPL 2021 is likely to clash with the series in the Future Tours Programme (FTP).
