Owners of the Manchester United team, who previously applied for an Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise, have expressed interest in the Women’s IPL. According to an owner’s representative who spoke with Cricbuzz on the sidelines of the ILT20 in Dubai, where they also own the Desert Vipers team, Avaram Glazer is reportedly seriously considering the WIPL.
“Having bought into the ILT20, it is natural for us to look into other cricket opportunities around the world, including Women’s IPL,” Phil Oliver, the CEO of Desert Vipers said.
It is thought that since the BCCI recently introduced the WIPL franchise ITT, it has created a significant amount of buzz in both the Indian and global markets. The majority of the current IPL franchises and those who were unable to acquire an IPL side in 2021 are believed to be among the over 20 parties who have taken the ITT, and there may be fierce bidding competition.
