Dubai: The International Cricket Council decided to closely monitor Indian Premier League (IPL) to ensure that it works in harmony with international cricket.
The ICC has made it clear that bilateral commitments of members will take precedence over IPL fixtures.
The IPL will have to follow certain terms and conditions. All member nations have been given the right to lodge an objection to any player from playing in the IPL. This objection can be lodged up to two years after that player's retirement.
David Morgan confirmed that IPL is an official event and that ICL is an unofficial event.
The ICC officially announced the appointment of India's I.S. Bindra as ICC's principal advisor.
