PNS Bhubaneswar, 17/02/10
Indian Premier League ( IPL) authorities on Tuesday allotted two of Deccan Chargers' home matches to the Cuttack-based Barabati Stadium on March 19 and 21.
This was decided after a series of discussions between the IPL and Deccan Chargers franchise to host matches in their catchment area. The IPL authorities have shifted the Chargers home matches from Hyderabad and Visakhapatnam to Cuttack due to the present political chaos in Andhra Pradesh. The defending champion Deccan Chargers will play Kings XI Punjab and Delhi Daredevils on March 19 and two days later respectively.
The IPL team will reach Cuttack on Saturday for the inspection, said OCA honorary secretary Asirbad Behera.
He expressed his happiness and enthusiasm to make the IPL matches a grand success. For the first time the State cricket lovers will witness the high voltage IPL 20-20 matches, he added.
