The BCCI and UAE Government have finally decided on allowing fans to see the IPL matches from the stadiums. “Yes, it will be allowed this time as both the BCCI and UAE government have given a green light to let the crowd enter the stadium partially. Emirates Cricket Board (ECB) is doing everything possible to keep a check on cases (Covid-19),” the official said.
After carefully considering all the factors, it is decided that a crowd will be allowed in stadiums.
UAE has seen a dip in the COVID-19 cases. The government has decided to allow only vaccinated individuals in the stadium. BCCI shared that,” Right now fans are allowed. Let’s see what happens in the future.”
The UAE Government and BCCI were earlier getting all the approvals and following the necessary protocols. The fan’s attendance and spectator requirements were being considered.
It is to be noted that the officials will love to see a crowd cheer for their favorite teams from the stadium.
Despite all the effort made for the fans, a COVID-19 appropriate behavior must be followed at all times. The second phase of IPL 2021 will resume with the clash between Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians on September 19. In total, 31 matches, including qualifiers, will be played over 27 days. Best of luck to all the franchises!
