Indian Premier League auction delayedANDREW CORNAGA/PHOTOSPORT Martin Guptill will have to wait til later this month to see if he is picked to play in the Indian Premier League. New Zealand cricketers hoping for a lucrative Indian Premier League call-up will have to wait a little longer following the postponement of Saturday's auction. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is yet to confirm a new auction date for the Twenty20 league, however it is likely to occur later this month. The BCCI insists the IPL season will start on April 5 as originally planned. The news comes as high-ranking cricket officials from around the world descend on Dubai for a round of International Cricket Council (ICC) meetings.
