'If you prioritise IPL…': Kapil Dev on India's exit from T20 World Cup 2021

Published on Nov 09, 2021 12:09 am IST

World Cup-winning former India captain Kapil Dev believes the country's cricketers "prioritise IPL" over national assignments and the onus is on the BCCI to make better schedules to avoid the "mistakes" committed during the ongoing T20 World Cup. India failed to make it to the semifinals of the ICC event, paying heavily for the back-to-back early losses in the Super 12 stage. New Zealand clinched the last available semifinal spot on Sunday to knock Virat Kohli's men out of the tournament. "When players prioritise IPL over playing for the country, what can we say? Players should take pride in playing for their nation. I don't know their financial condition so can't say much," the 62-year-old former captain told 'ABP News'.
