바카라The final decision (about venues) might come on December 9 (the day of the WPL auction) but it is highly likely that this year it (WPL) will follow the multi-city format with Mumbai and Bengaluru being the front-runners at this moment,바카라 a BCCI official told PTI on conditions of anonymity. 

바카라The WPL was received well by the fans in the opening year, and it is the right time to take it to different cities. Bengaluru always has a good audience for women바카라s cricket, and it has now grown because of the RCB women바카라s team.바카라

Mumbai and Karnataka cricket association officials too expressed readiness to host the matches, if indeed they come their way.

Royal Challengers Bangalore women바카라s team captain Smriti Mandhana too had backed the multi-city format for the WPL. 

바카라It would be great to have WPL in multi-city format. That might be the next step and I am sure people right here would look into it and make it happen. As an RCB fan, I would love to play in Chinnaswamy where people are chanting 바카라RCB, RCB바카라 and just to be in that environment,바카라 Mandhana had said during the recent RCB Innovation Lab바카라s Leaders Meet India. 

바카라That is something which is one step ahead for us that it (multi-city format) can reach to places where women바카라s cricket hasn바카라t reached and to get a new audience going into women바카라s cricket,바카라 Mandhana added.
