The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has said that it is considering all options for holding the Indian Premier League (IPL) and training of its contracted players. BCCI wants to organize IPL in any case. The board source said that the BCCI is finding a way to hold the world's most expensive T20 league and its players' training camp.
Speaking to news agency ANI, a BCCI source has said, "Nothing has been decided yet. As far as hosting the IPL is concerned, we are watching and monitoring the situation very closely. We are exploring all options and some countries have offered to host IPL, which includes UAE and Sri Lanka, but we are waiting and watching and will talk to the government as well. We will do everything in the interest of the country and cricket. Everything will be discussed in the Governing Council of IPL. "
When asked about the players' training camp, the board source said, "Nothing has been decided yet and we cannot fix it so easily. All that is in the media is speculation. We will also organize camps according to where IPL can be organized." Coronavirus epidemic has greatly impacted the sporting activities around the world.
Let us tell you that the 2020 edition of IPL has been postponed indefinitely due to the epidemic. However, many sports events worldwide are slowly returning. International cricket also resumed on 8 July when England hosted the West Indies for the Test match. With the victory in the first Test, the West Indies took a 1-0 lead over England in the three-match Test series.
