Hardik
was
released
by
Mumbai
Indians
while
Rashid
was
let
go
by
Sunrisers
Hyderabad
and
Gill
was
released
by
Kolkata
Knight
Riders.
Ahmedabad
team
was
bought
by
CVC
Capitals
and
has
former
India
speedster
Ashish
Nehra
as
head
coach,
Gary
Kirsten,
more
likely
in
a
mentor
role,
and
former
England

It

also
been
reported

an
identical
amount
—
Rs

BCCI
clean
chit
for
CVC
Capital
The
Board
of
Control
for
Cricket
in
India
(BCCI)
has
on
Monday
(January
10)
officially
given
a
clean
chit
to
the
CVC
Capital,
the
owners
of
Ahmedabad
IPL
team.
And
through
it,
the
BCCI
also
gave
an
all-clear
for
the
franchise’s
participation
in
the
IPL
2022,
say
reports.
It
may
be
recalled
that
there
was
a
concern
over
the
ownership
pattern
of
the
Ahmedabad
IPL
team
because
of
the
CVC
Capitals’
off-shore
links
with
a
few
betting
firms.
The
CVC
Capital
had
bought
the
Ahmedabad
IPL
team
for
a
Rs
5625
crore
beating
frontrunners
like
the
Adani
Group.
On
the
same
day,
the
BCCI
had
also
given
clearance
to
the
Lucknow
team
owners,
clearing
the
deck
for
the
participation
of
two
new
teams
in
the
IPL
2022.
The
IPL
2022
is
scheduled
for
the
window
in
April-May
and
is
expected
to
take
place
in
India
but
the
BCCI
has
also
penciled
in
South
Africa
and
Sri
Lanka
as
back-up
venues
considering
the
Covid-19
scenario
in
the
country.
