Seeking re-election next month, London’s Mayor Sadiq Khan has vowed to work with cricket authorities and bring IPL matches to the British capital after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided.


Khan expressed his optimism after the successful hosting of NFL (National Football League) and Major League Baseball (MLB) matches in London. “This is part of my plan to build a better London after the pandemic,” Khan said in a press release.


“I know Londoners are hungry to see more of the likes of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Rishabh Pant and, with two of the world’s greatest cricket grounds in Lord’s and The Kia Oval, London is ideally placed to host IPL matches,” he added.
