The 2021 edition will be held in a bio-secure environment as Covid-19 cases continue to rise in the island nation.

"The 2020 edition was held under a successful bio-bubble environment. Health protocols for the 2nd edition of the LPL will be planned based on the directions of the Ministry of Health," said the SLC.

The inaugural edition of LPL, which is Sri Lanka's top domestic T20 league and includes international cricketers, was conducted in 2020 in Hambantota. There were five teams in the tournament. It was won by Jaffna Stallions, who defeated Galle Gladiators by four wickets in the final.

Three Indian cricketers were part of the first edition of LPL. They were former India pacers Irfan Pathan, Munaf Patel and Sudeep Tyagi.
