BCCI president Anurag Thakur has said the board has put any plans for a mini IPL in the USA on hold, with T20 internationals being the preferred foray in the American market. The key obstacle, according to Thakur, was the time zone difference. Matches would need to start at 10am local time on the east coast in the USA, making mid-week fixtures difficult to draw big crowds and also limiting their options for alternate venues around the country.I think we must understand the time difference, Thakur told ESPNcricinfo. IPL is seen in India from 7 oclock to 11 or 11.30 at night. So you have to play somewhere in the east coast here (USA) so [that] the timing matches. If we have to play in the day here, the matches should be seen in India at night because broadcasting is a big thing. So you cant make your home fan lose [by] playing outside India. So which are the provinces you can play in United States? Thats a big task.IPL, we are not even thinking of hosting it outside India. It has to be hosted in India, but there are many other options what you can do which well let you know over a period of time when we come out with a long-term plan for this market.The BCCI had announced the idea of a mini IPL or IPL overseas in June when Thakur had said the board would host the tournament in September. A final approval was awaited after talks with franchises and broadcasters but no announcement has been made yet. During informal conversations with the BCCI, though, top officials have pointed out bizarrely that Thakur had never announced any plans for a tournament called mini IPL.The USA and UAE were options being discussed at the IPL governing council and working committee meetings earlier this year. We have to look into various details: which country we can play in, how many teams, how many players should participate, who will be the broadcaster - all these issues need to deliberated, but we are keen to play in that [September] window, Thakur had said in June.The BCCI had been trying to fill an empty window as India are not scheduled to play any cricket till the home Tests against New Zealand start on September 22. Eric Fisher Super Bowl Jersey . There are some early surprises in the race for the Hart Trophy, but two of the contenders are the leagues biggest stars over the past decade. There are many more players in contention for the awards than just the three that Ive named, and a good or bad week can easily alter the landscape, but through the first 20 or so games of the NHL season, this is how the awards races look to me. Tony Gonzalez Super Bowl Jersey . The winner Saturday will remain in the elite 10-team field next year. "We talked about wanting to be disciplined and stick with our game plan and good things will come," Draisaitl said, who had two goals for the victors. http://www.officialkcchiefspro.com/Tyrann-mathieu-chiefs-jersey/ .Y. -- Buffalo Bills coach Doug Marrone has drawn on his Syracuse connections once again by hiring Rob Moore to take over as receivers coach.

Mecole Hardman Super Bowl Jersey . -- Bryant McKinnie came out of his stance and lowered his shoulder into a practice squad player, causing a crisp thud to reverberate in the Miami Dolphins practice bubble. Exeter Chiefs coach Rob Baxter has rubbished reports Henry Slade could leave the Aviva Premiership side.Slade, 23, penned a new three-year deal in 2014 and has been linked with an end-of-season move to Bath. But Baxter has poured cold water on those reports and is adamant Slade is happy at Sandy Park.One jungle drum rumour that I can put to bed and thats interesting everyone is that of Henry Slade, Baxter said. Ive had a couple of chats with Henry and had a joke with him about all the rumours that are flying around because there is no truth in him having any interest in going to Bath.Thats been a talking point for us on the jungle drums this week, but Id also like to say that if he does end up playing at ten, it wont be because we are being told by Eddie Jones he needs to play ten -- and he wont be playing ten because I am worried that if we dont play here there he will go and play for Bath, so there is one jungle drum rumour I can put to bed straight away.Baxter continued: Its not unsettling to us as a club, to me, or even to Henry, and I dont believe for one minute its unsettling to Batth or any other clubs that get linked into the rumours because its unusual if head coaches and players dont have a close enough relationship for us to know if those sorts of things were going to happen.ddddddddddddIts not unsettling for me to read anything about Henry as I know hes under contract here and I know hes fully committed to us, and hes desperate to do good things for us, play well for us, and for us to win things.We have a bit of a laugh about it, its one of those things that happens, but that is what sport is all about. It is good that people want to talk and chat and find interesting things to talk about, thats what we want to do, I have no problem with promoting the game and it being something we talk about.If anything football can command a 24-hour day radio programme just to talk about football, it would be nice if we could do that about rugby, we cant do that at the moment, but there is no problem if rugby gets promoted in whatever way it can.
