    Overseas players in IPL playing XI should be increased: Official
  • A BCCI official has suggested that five overseas players should feature in the starting XI instead of four in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 edition.

    A top official reckoned that several star overseas players end up warming the bench throughout the season which is not how it should be.

    Here are further details on the same.

    A team can have only four foreigners in playing XI

  • Several teams have struggled to maintain quality in the squad with the Indian players at their disposal because of the restriction over foreign players' participation.

    Each squad is allowed to have eight overseas players in the roster, however, only four can be named in the playing XI.

    The just-concluded IPL saw several star performers such as Chris Lynn be benched for the entire tournament.

    An added overseas player will balance things out

  • The official told an additional foreign player will balance teams. "There are quality overseas players who are warming the bench every season because of the restriction. An added overseas player will balance out that need," the official told The Times of India.
