Vivo IPL 2021: In pleasing news for cricket fans across the world and especially in the UAE, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has decided to allow fans into the stadium for the upcoming second leg of the Indian Premier League.
The first half of the league was played behind closed doors and the previous IPL edition was also held in the absence of the fans, however, with the improvement in the covid-19 situation in the UAE, the cricket governing body of UAE and the BCCI has decided to bring the fans back to the stadiums.
