IPL 2020: BCCI and Franchises Will Get on a Conference Call to Decide The Fate of The Event
Follow Us
IPL 2020 is facing various issues due to the Coronavirus outbreak. Initially, the BCCI and IPL committee decided to go ahead with the event without an audience. Unfortunately, at that point the Indian Government put a ban on foreign visas. Now, the franchises did not want to go forward with the event given that the foreign players could not participate.
Discussions regarding the fate of IPL 2020 are still on-going
The discussions are going to and fro and there is not tentative date. As of now, the first match will be on the 15th of April. Considering the rise in the virus threat, there is a possibility that this match will not go ahead. The IPL 2020 management put forward a plea to allow the foreign players to come to India. Unfortunately, this plea did not go forward in favour of the IPL franchises. The losses that the franchises will suffer without an audience is significant lower than the loss they will suffer if the event is cancelled.
