The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has made its decision to schedule the knockout matches of Ranji Trophy 2022 in Bengaluru.
The knockout stages of the ongoing Indian red-ball competition will be held from May 30 to June 26. BCCI has decided Bengaluru be the host of these matches due to favourable weather conditions.
BCCI has made this call “internally” considering the weather situation in Bengaluru in the month of June. The national cricket board will keep in mind that the monsoon sets in the Karnataka capital only around July.
Monsoon will have an effect during the month of June that could be massive destruction in the smooth execution of the games. However, it’s seen that rain sets only in the capital of Karnataka but by then, the competition will be over. BCCI did make a fair decision.
