Industrialist Harsh Goenka has come out in support of shifting the Indian Premier League (IPL) from the summer to the winter season. The brother of Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) owner Sanjiv Goenka posted on social media agreeing with Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) co-owner Juhi Chawla and former IPL chairman Lalit Modi's idea.
Harsh explained the three key reasons behind this shift:
1. Better cricket - Players would perform better in pleasant weather as opposed to the scorching 40°C heat during the current summer tournament.
2. Better fan experience - Families can enjoy packed stadiums without having to battle the summer furnace.
3. Fewer disruptions - With less extreme heat and potentially fewer pre-monsoon weather interruptions, the winter calendar would provide a more consistent playing schedule.
