The IPL organisers are reportedly in talks with the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) to arrange for the final at Lord's this September, reported 'The Daily Telegraph'.
The international version of the IPL will feature the top two teams from the IPL and the leading sides from England's, Australia's, South Africa's and Pakistan's own domestic Twenty20 competitions
Dubai is also one of the likely venues to organise the final but since the ground is not likely to be ready in time, the hosting rights could well go to the Lord's. But ECB officials have chosen to keep mum for the time being.
"Not so fast, not so fast!" a senior ECB representative was quoted as saying. The grand idea, however, faces a few obstacles, the most important being the time.
