Mumbai: Mumbai Police will provide green corridors for the movement of buses carrying players and staff for the IPL 2022 season to ensure that they reach the venues for playing and practice in time and do not get stuck in traffic.
Over 1,100 police personnel including traffic police will be deployed for the matches in Mumbai, a senior officer said on Saturday.
This year all IPL league matches are being held in two cities - Mumbai and Pune, and the ten participating teams are staying in posh hotels in different parts of the megapolis.
The league matches starting Saturday (March 26) evening will be played at the Wankhede Stadium, Brabourne stadium - both in south Mumbai, DY Patil stadium in Navi Mumbai and MCA Stadium in Pune.
A police officer said that as the distance between the hotels where the players and staff of teams are staying and the stadiums are far, Mumbai Police are taking additional precautions about players' safety and timings of matches.
