CA Has Evaluated The Idea To Host BBL In India And Sees Long-term Benefits: IPL Chair Arun Dhumal
Tamil Nadu Cricket Association: Indian Premier League (IPL) chairman Arun Dhumal believes Cricket Australia's decision to launch the upcoming Big Bash League (BBL) season in India could have benefits that extend beyond commercial gains, saying the move has the potential to contribute to cricket's growth in emerging markets at a time when the sport is preparing for its Olympic return.
An official announcement from Cricket Australia and the Tamil Nadu Cricket Association (TNCA) is pending, though the BCCI has reportedly given the necessary approvals after a delegation inspected the venue for the opening match of the 2026-27 BBL to be staged at Chennai's MA Chidambaram Stadium.
Speaking on the rationale behind Cricket Australia's decision, Dhumal pointed to India's enormous fan base and the opportunities it creates for the global game. "When you look at the scale of interest that exists in India, there is tremendous potential to create opportunities that help the game grow beyond traditional markets,” Dhumal told IANS.
