Saudi Arabia, major oil producer and OPEC+ leader, is planning to take a stake in the Indian Premier League owned by the Board of Control for Cricket in India, according to Bloomberg. The IPL is valued at Rs 1.3 lakh crore or $15.4 billion, by global investment bank Houlihan Lokey.

India is expected to be the largest source of tourists for Saudi Arabia by 2030

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s advisers have reached out to the Indian government, seeking the transfer of IPL assets to a separate entity.

They have estimated IPL at $30 billion. The larger interest of Saudi Arabia in IPL is to promote itself as a tourist destination to Indians, who also visited the country as part of the recent Tata IPL. India is expected to be the largest source of tourists for Saudi Arabia by 2030, according to Outlook.
