The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) have apparently turned down a suggestion by Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) to stage a few of the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) games in the island nation.

The fifth edition of the IPL, comprising nine teams and 76 matches, will kickstart and end in Chennai, with the opening match on April 4 and the final on May 27.
 
The teams will play each other at home and away during a league phase consisting of 72 games at 12, possibly 13, venues, beginning with the defending champions Chennai Super Kings playing Champions League T20 winners Mumbai Indians.
