The main attraction is the return of spectators to the stadiums during the tournament in the UAE. The BCCI had earlier said that spectators would be restricted to galleries in stadiums.
The IPL is also gaining attention as a warm-up match for the T20 World Cup in October. Most of the players in the World Cup squad from various teams around the world, including India, are part of the IPL. However, the withdrawal of key players due to Kovid fears and personal reasons has caused a small crisis for many teams. Six England players, including all-rounder Ben Stokes and pacer Joffrey Archer, and Australia pace bowler Pat Cummins have been ruled out.
