New IPL venue South Africa ?

TV news was there that, there is a possibility of IPL Venue moved to South Africa. Dont know news is true or just a rumour.

There is some problems to fix IPL Venue in India due to Lok Sabha Elections 2009.This is due to Security arrangements. As more security is needed for Elections, the security of players cannot be considered more important.


More than that if Elections and IPL is conducted in parallel more people will be under Twenty20 tournament IPL 2009 fever. So they will concentrate less on Elections.


So there is some possibility of selecting new IPL Venue, maybe outside India.


But if IPL is moved outside India, then there will be less number of people there in stadium to watch IPL and there will be reduction of Income from Tickets. So if South Africa or other county is selected as new venue, then the IPL revenue will decrease.


There are also news or rumour that Dubai is also considered for Indian Primer League.


Thank You.
