Before 2014, whenever the Lok Sabha elections were held in the country (every 5 years), the IPL was held abroad. In 2009, this league was played in South Africa, while in 2014, it was held in India and UAE. But since the 2014 Lok Sabha elections, this league is being organized in its own country in coordination with the election dates.
