Most foreign recruits left their IPL privileges for their countries on Saturday after commenting on the prominent T20, which stopped for a week due to the border tension in India and Pakistan. The Indian Premier League (IPL) was suspended on Friday, a day after giving up the Punjab Kings match against Delhi in Daramsala in the middle of the road after the air strike alerts in neighboring cities in Jamo and Pathankot. With the suspension of the championship, players and support staff from various privileges began to return to their city, while many foreign players are at home.
“Our players and our employees who are safely extended to Bangaluru are now at home to their cities and country,” RCB said in a statement.
Foreign RCB includes Tim David, William Livingstone, Jacob Bethael, Romario Shepherd, Philippe Sulting, Josh Hazliowood, Long Najidi and Nawan Thoshara.
Among the support employees abroad Andy Flaw, Bowling coach Adam Griffiths, director of cricket Operations Mbat, Vizio Ivan Al -Kalam team, and analyst Freddy Wilde.
“We are very grateful to coordination and quick support from BCCI, local authorities and the police that made it possible,” added a RCB statement.
The LSG official also confirmed to PTI that some of their players abroad flew on Saturday, while a few others chose to stay now.
For other privileges such as Mumbai Indians (MI) and Kolkata Knight Rides (KKR), both local and international players also left for their sites.
According to a source, KKR players left Hyderabad, where they were scheduled to face Sunrisers Hyderabad on Saturday.
After the IPL match was canceled in Dharamsala, players from Punjab and Delhi arrived in New Delhi on Friday after being evacuated and accompanied to the Galandhar Railway Station in batches via Hoshbur amid tight security.
The difference arrived in New Delhi on board the private “Vande Bharat Express”.
Punjab source, PBKS, said that most of their foreign players had left home.
Meanwhile, BCCI Devajit Saikia said that updates related to the revised schedule and places for the remainder of the tournament will be shared in a timely manner after a comprehensive evaluation of the situation in consultation with the relevant authorities and stakeholders.
The IPL suspension comes in the wake of Indian missile strikes targeting the cross -border terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan, Jamo and Kashmir occupied by Pakistan.
The strikes were carried out in response to the terrorist attack on April 22, which killed 26 people.
