No IPL this year as lockdown increases! BCCI can make big announcement anytime
There is a possibility of deciding on the IPL tournament anytime. The tournament can also be canceled. The reason for Corona has already been eclipsed at Wimbledon and the Olympic Games.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced to extend the lockdown issued by the Corona virus by 3 May. After this, now the world’s richest T20 cricket league IPL can be decided at any time. The BCCI postponed the IPL to 15 April, in the hope that if the conditions improve, the tournament could be held by looking at a suitable window, but the lockdown was extended until May 3, eliminating all possibilities.
IPL can be canceled
There is a possibility of deciding on the IPL tournament anytime. The tournament can also be canceled. The reason for Corona has already been eclipsed at Wimbledon and the Olympic Games. How can IPL be organized in such a big question?
More than 10,000 people in India have been infected with Corona virus due to Corona virus. While 339 of these people have died. Earlier, Chairman of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), Sourav Ganguly gave a big statement about IPL. Sourav Ganguly had said that in the current situation, it cannot be imagined.
Ganguly said – Forget IPL
Sourav Ganguly said, “It is difficult to organize the IPL in the circumstances that exist now.” At this time airports are closed, people are stuck in homes, offices are closed, no one can go anywhere and it looks like this will continue till mid-May.
Ganguly had said that when everything is closed in the whole world, how will the players come and if the players do not come then how will it be possible to organize the tournament. Where will you get players, where will the players travel. This is a matter of very common common sense, there is nothing in favor of sports in the whole world at any time, forget the IPL.
3000 crores loss
Ganguly said, what will be the future for the game when there is stagnation in the world. IPL will probably not be held in May also. Due to absence of IPL, BCCI and all franchise teams will suffer heavy losses. According to BCCI sources, there will be a loss of Rs 3000 crore on cancellation of IPL.
The BCCI will try to find a solution with all stakeholders. The other option is that if the stakeholders related to the ICC, Cricket Australia and T20 World Cup are ready then the IPL can be held in its place, but now it seems difficult.
PM Modi announced
Let us know that in India, PM Modi has announced to extend the lockdown till 3 May. Besides, he appreciated the patience of the countrymen during the lockdown and also said that our efforts have been successful to a great extent in stopping Corona. However, instead of relaxing the lockdown, PM Modi has given a message of more strictness.
PM Modi has said that the lockdown has to be implemented more rigorously in the next one week. PM Modi said, ‘In the next one week, the fight against Corona will be increased more harshly. By 20 April every police station, every district, every state will be closely examined. How much lockdown is being followed will be evaluated. Who will succeed. Those who will not allow hotspots, there may be relaxation of some important things from April 20. But remember this permission will be conditional. If the lockdown rules are broken then all the permission will be withdrawn immediately.
