Arun Dhumal, IPL Chairman: Declares to introduce home and away format in WPL from season 2

Stunned and proud by the success of the inaugural Women’s Premier League, on Tuesday, IPL chairman Arun Dhumal said that they plan to introduce the home and away format from season two but the number of teams will remain five for the next three years.

The first-ever WPL turned out to be a hit among fans and players but as the tournament was staged within tough timelines and right after the Women’s T20 World Cup, the BCCI decided to organise all the games across two venues in Mumbai.

Terming hosting of WPL the biggest challenge of his tenure, Dhumal said having home and away games immensely help teams in building a fan base and the board wants to take that route as early as next season. “Well begun is half done. It has been a great beginning for WPL and going forward it is going to be much better than what we have seen so far. We have started with five teams but going forward there is scope for additional teams given the pool of players that is going to come in the years to follow.

We are hoping the increase in the number of teams but for the coming three seasons will remain five. We are surely looking at home and away format, we will see which time slot is available considering India’s international commitment and take a call.

“From a fan engagement point of view it is very important that we go for home and away format,” Dhumal told PTI.

Fans turned up in sizeable numbers to watch the games at Brabourne and DY Patil Stadium. The event had garnered massive attention even before the first ball was bowled with the teams rights fetching BCCI close to Rs 4700 crore and media rights Rs 951 crore.

“It has been a phenomenal ride so far and quite a challenging one given the time slot we had to start the WPL. We are satisfied with the way things have progressed, we did not have much of window as the World Cup was there and the girls had just about a week to comeback and start.

“Everything (media rights, team rights, player auction) happened one after the other but the way tournament was received, it was phenomenal,” Dhumal said.

One reason for not introducing a sixth team right away could be the lack of quality local talent. The world’s best displayed their exemplary skills in the competition but leaving aside Saika Ishaque, Kanika Ahuja and Shreyanka Patil, not many uncapped Indian players were able to turn heads on.
