“That is certainly an option. We have seen how successful the IPL was last year and we are certainly considering the proposal,” a member of the IPL Governing Council told Cricbuzz.
A total of 5 teams will participate in the WIPL which is scheduled to commence this season as an experiment. Following a part of the experiment, the BCCI is keen to conduct the entire tournament in Mumbai. As a result, the apex cricketing body has been in constant communication with the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA).

The sanctioning of the entire tournament in a fixed city has quite a few advantages. First of all, there is a reduced headache about the travel of the teams. Secondly, it will be a boon for the broadcasters in conducting services that are more secure. Though the broadcasters and the franchises are in major doubt about the financial credibility of this unknown venture.

Back in October when the BCCI conducted its AGM, there were certain proposals where the teams were supposed to be slotted according to their zones. Non-IPL zone was scheduled to get the top priority in having teams for the WIPL. The other option was to hold the matches at the regular IPL venues, however, with the latest development, it is Mumbai who leads the race in hosting the entire tournament.
“Each team wip plays with each other twice during the season. The team finishing at the top of the table after the end of league matches will directly go into the finals, while the team finishing second and third will play the eliminator after the end of the regular season. The winners of the eliminator will qualify for the final,” BCCI’s AGM minute read.
