The Karnataka State Cricket Affiliation (KSCA) expressed profound disappointment over the BCCI’s choice to maneuver the IPL 2026 ultimate from Bengaluru to Ahmedabad. Regardless of Bengaluru being the traditional selection as Royal Challengers Bengaluru are the reigning champions, the venue change caught KSCA off guard.
KSCA president Venkatesh Prasad revealed that the Board attributed the choice to particular necessities from native authorities, though these causes stay unspecified. The affiliation had extensively communicated their readiness to host, supported by important renovations and improved safety.
Whatever the BCCI’s verdict, KSCA stays totally dedicated to future occasions. The long-lasting Chinnaswamy Stadium will quickly host the India vs. West Indies T20I and an ODI towards Sri Lanka, reinforcing KSCA’s continued engagement with worldwide cricket.
