LSG vs CSK IPL 2023 Match 46: The situation has not yet been clarified whether the match between Lucknow and Chennai will be played on May 4 at the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Stadium. This match is to be played from 3.30 pm and on this day there is also voting for civic body elections in Lucknow. The district administration is not ready for this competition.
According to a UPCA official, it is no longer possible to shift the match to another city. In such a situation, the match between LSG and CSK may be played without spectators. However, BCCI Vice President Rajeev Shukla will soon meet Chief Minister Yogi in this regard.
UPCA CEO Ankit Chatterjee says that there are civic elections in Lucknow on May 4 and in such a situation, security arrangements can be a big issue. But, so far no inability has been expressed by the district administration in this regard. There was also a meeting on Tuesday regarding the security arrangements for the upcoming matches at Ekana Stadium. In addition to senior officers of the police administration, officials of the Uttar Pradesh Cricket Association and the Board of Control for Cricket in India were also present.
Ankit Chatterjee told that nothing special happened in the meeting regarding the match between Lucknow Super Giants and Chennai Super Kings. However, the final decision on this has to be taken by the BCCI and the district administration.
IPL for the first time in Lucknow
IPL is being organized for the first time at Ekana Stadium. Lucknow Super Giants have to play seven matches at their home ground Ekana Stadium. Two matches have been played in these. Lucknow Super Giants registered a resounding victory in both these matches.
There are five more matches to be played here. These matches are to be held on April 15, April 22, May 1, May 4, and May 16. But the notification of civic elections cooled the enthusiasm of the sports fans regarding the high voltage match between Lucknow and Chennai. It is believed that conducting the match on election day will be a big challenge for the district administration. That's why the middle way is being taken out. In this episode, BCCI Vice President Rajeev Shukla will meet Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and will soon take a final decision on this. At the moment, it is not possible to transfer this match to any other city.
