T20 Mumbai league set to be rescheduled to June 4-10

MUMBAI: The delay in the conduct of the Indian Premier League due to a pause for a week has pushed back the start of the T20 Mumbai League, which is being revived after six years, by almost a week. The tournament, which was originally supposed to run from May 26 to June 8 at the Wankhede Stadium , will now be held from June 4 to June 10, with double headers every day.

"The league will now be held at two venues-the Wankhede and one amongst the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai, the MCA ground in BKC, or the Brabourne Stadium (in Cricket Club of India ). There will be double headers at both venues every day," a reliable source in the Mumbai Cricket Association told TOI on Friday.

Eight teams will compete for the title. The auction for the League was held on May 7.
