A moment of respite and glory may come for Multi Screen Media (MSM) - the official broadcaster of the Indian Premier League (IPL) as the league's governing council floated a proposal of adding two new teams to replace the suspended Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Rajasthan Royals' (RR) spot.
Additionally, the IPL governing council also proposed that after the two year ban was lifted from both the teams, the IPL will be a 10 team affair.
“One suggestion is to have two new teams only for two years and replace them with CSK and RR in 2018 when they come back,” an IPL GC member told PTI today (27 August).
“The second suggestion is to make it 10 teams from 2018 onwards once the two suspended franchises complete their sentence,” he added.
