Cricket: Forget IPL amid coronavirus pandemic - Sourav Ganguly

The Board of Control of Cricket in India President Sourav Ganguly said that nothing is in favour of any kind of sport and hence forget the IPL at the moment. The former Team India captain admitted that the chances of the 2020 Indian Premier League starting any time soon is bleak. Ganguly said that he will be able to give a concrete update on whether the IPL will be further deferred after speaking to BCCI office-bearers. "But practically speaking, when life has come to a standstill everywhere in the world, where does sport have a future in this," he told the media. "Where will you get players from, where do players travel. It's just simple common sense that at the moment, nothing is in favour of any kind of sport anywhere in the world, forget IPL," Ganguly added.
