Earlier, CSK’s matches were shifted from Chennai to Pune amid the Cauvery protest.

Talking to the media, IPL Chairman Rajiv Shukla had said, “CSK will be asked to move their home matches to Pune as the Chennai police have expressed their inability to provide adequate security for the remaining matches.”

Meanwhile, talking to news agency IANS, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) Chief Executive Officer K S Viswanathan had said: “We talked to the Chennai’s Commissioner of Police over the issue. He suggested we shift the matches as the situation is volatile in the city.”

“We have put the ball in BCCI’s court and the board will now take a call on the issue,” Viswanathan added.
