Former Team India head coach Ravi Shastri made a bold prediction, saying that we may soon see two seasons of the Indian Premier League (IPL) in a single year.
Shastri said that while one season will be a full-blown edition in the same format the competition has been played in all these years, there may be a shorter season with more knockout rounds in the latter part of the year.
His comments come at a time when domestic T20 leagues are growing in prominence. "I think you might have two (IPL) seasons," Shastri said on "The Tuffers and Vaughan Cricket Show". "I wouldn't be surprised at all.
You might have a full competition with 10 teams -- it could go to 12 teams in the future where the corridor can go from one-and-a-half months to two months.
