BCCI was previously handed a couple of deadlines, December 31 in 2019 and 2020, but has missed it all. While it races against time, if the Union Government decides against exempting the tournament from tax, BCCI would play a whopping ₹906 crore, reports IANS.

Furthermore, the ICC has reportedly set Sri Lanka and United Arab Emirates (UAE) as a back-up venue for the event. With a new deadline set by February, BCCI has already written a letter to the government, asking the competition to be tax-exempted, as a reply is awaited.
