Security arrangement during India-Australia ODI will be top priority for Baroda Cricket Association (BCA) management this time around.

For, it would be playing host to one of the most important personalities of the state. Chief Minister Narendra Modi will be present at the ODI that will be played on October 25 at Reliance Stadium.

The association had sent a special invitation to Modi. Senior BCA officials told TOI that chief minister’s office has accepted the invitation. State home minister Amit Shah will also join Modi. This is the first international cricket match in the state after Modi took over as Gujarat Cricket Association (GCA) president.

“As a protocol, we always send invitation to GCA top management. However, this time we specially invited Modi to see the match. We have got a positive reply from the CMO. However, we will get details at a later stage,” said a senior BCA official.

“Modi is interested in cricket and hence, he accepted our invitation. We have already begun preparations for his visit,” BCA vice-president Sanjay Patel said.

The BCA management is bit anxious about the security arrangements as Modi has Z plus security. District collector Vijay Nehra visited Reliance Stadium on Thursday evening along with police officials to review the security situation. Modi will land at Harni airport on Sunday morning and then travel to Reliance Stadium. Security of the players is always a big concern for any cricketing association and Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has already asked all the associations to upgrade security for cricketers. “With Modi’s office giving a positive nod, we will now have to give special attention to his security. It will take up most of our time as we will have to take care of cricketers too,” a BCA official said.

7 IPL matches in Ahmedabad!

Not two, not four, Ahmedabad has got seven Indian Premier league (IPL) matches. Ahmedabad Mirror was the first to report about the city hosting four or more IPL matches (Amdavad may get four IPL matches, March 10).

On Tuesday, the IPL organising committee sent an e-mail to the Gujarat Cricket Assocation (GCA), inviting them to host seven matches, mostly involving Rajasthan Royals, under whose catchment area comes Ahmedabad.

The IPL matches in the city will take place on April 11, April 13, April 17, May 6, May 9, May 10 and May 13.

This “miracle,” as GCA president Narhari Amin put it, came about after the Rajasthan government expressed its reluctance to provide security for the IPL ties because of Lok Sabha elections.

New Delhi, Jaipur and Visakhapatanam have been dropped as venues in the latest revised schedule for the second edition of the Indian Premier League which is still awaiting the green signal from the Home Ministry.

Gujarat has no problems hosting the matches as elections in the state will take place on April 30.

Said Amin, who was in Delhi on Tuesday, “I had a lengthy meeting with Chief Minister Narendra Modi in Delhi. He told me that the IPL coming to Gujarat was a wonderful thing and has personally assured me complete security. We are ready for the seven matches offered to Ahmedabad.”

The GCA officials said Ahmedabad will not just be hosting matches involving Rajasthan Royals. “The governments of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu have expressed deep reservations over IPL. There are good chances of Bangalore Royal Challengers and Chennai Super Kings shifting some of their matches here,” said a GCA official.
