CHENNAI

The Indian Basketball League (IBL) has been in the pipeline ever since Aadhav Arjuna took charge as president of the Basketball Federation of India (BFI) in July 2023.

Though it was confirmed that the pro league would be held, no City has been announced as the host. Now, it is reliably learnt that Chennai might be among the Cities to host one leg of the league.

The Nehru Indoor Stadium could host a few league matches in January 2027. Stadium authorities told The Hindu here on Wednesday that the venue has been blocked for 20 days from January 20.
