If the proposition gets the green light during the General Council meeting, this will become the first time ever that the IPL final will not be taking place on a Sunday.
Following the postponement of the T20 World Cup by the International Cricket Council (ICC) last week, the 13th editions of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is now set to be held during the window of September 19 to November 10.
A final call is set to be taken during the IPL Governing Council meeting on August 2 to finalize the schedule and other key topics for the tournament, which is now set to be held in the UAE amid COVID-19 pandemic scare in India.

According to TOI reports, the official broadcaster of the IPL did express their hesitation over the 'constricted scheduling', looking to make a maximum profit of the Diwali week.

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) and Union Home Ministry (MHA) have to give their clearances for following which the 13th edition of IPL is all set to be held out of India amid the coronavirus pandemic scare.
Meanwhile, IPL's Governing Council Chairman Brijesh Patel had already confirmed that BCCI has sent the acceptance letter to the Emirates Cricket Board (ECB).
"Yes, we have sent the acceptance letter to the ECB and both the boards will be working together from now on to stage the tournament," Khaleej Times quoted Patel as saying.
As per the news outlet's reports, ECB had sent the proposal to the BCCI in April to host the 2020 season of the IPL, which was originally set to take place on March 29 in India.
