Expanding the Indian Premier League to ten groups from eight became one of the issues discussed during a meeting of the franchise proprietors and other stakeholders in London earlier this week.
However, the increase in the number of teams was a first as ten aspects competed within the 2011 edition of the IPL with the addition of the Kochi and Pune franchises.
Contractual troubles among Kochi and the Board of Control for Cricket in India meant the crew should most effectively last one season earlier than the Sahara-owned Pune Warriors, which also pulled out after the 2013 version, making it an eight-team contest again from 2014.
“We discussed growing the range of teams, but it became a casual discussion. Anyway, the teams don’t have the authority to decide on the matter; the BCCI will take a call; however, we’re open to the idea,” said a group legit who attended the assembly in London.
Another official also mentioned the IPL growth in the assembly. “There changed into a dialogue, but it became accomplished casually. There isn’t a concrete plan on the way to cross approximately it. More teams will result in more video games, suggesting a bigger scheduling window. So, all of that needs to be labored out,” stated the official…Ankle Sprains- Although still lacking in detailed statistical studies, some research papers have shown that, on average, ankle sprains constitute more than half of all reported badminton injuries. An ankle sprain can be described as the stretching and tearing of ligaments and muscles in the ankle. In extreme cases, there may also be damage to tendons, bones, and other joint tissues.
The resulting bleeding within tissues can cause sudden edema and swelling of the ankle, which often takes more than 6 months to heal completely in third-degree sprains. Ankle sprains are accidental in 99% of the incidences and happen when the player lands on his partner’s foot or the floor with his foot turned inwards, outwards, or flexed. The quick directional changes required during badminton often cause the feet to roll over or twist, resulting in a sprained ankle. Fatigue, extra body weight, and shoes with more than normal ‘grip’ are frequent contributors to such injuries.
