As expected, the International Cricket Council (ICC) has postponed the T20 World Cup which is scheduled to happen in Australia between October and November this year due to the spread of the coronavirus.

In this context, the BCCI is likely to make an official announcement on IPL management soon. While the BCCI is already preparing plans to host the IPL between October-November window, the franchisees are making all the arrangements.
