IPL Suspended

Amid India’s COVID crisis, BCCI decided to suspend the Indian Premier League for an indefinite period.

The tournament was just suspended, according to Vice President BCCI Rajeev Shukla, and can resume if the situation permits. “The Indian Premier League has suspended. We’ll see what we can do with reprogramming it; it hasn’t been canceled. For the time being, it’s just dangling.”

Following the rising cases of the bubble of Bio, the Cricket Commission had to conclude which lead to the final decision of suspending IPL.

Sourav Ganguly and the company faced huge pressure of all India and their inability to manage the COVID situation has aggravated the situation even more.

The Hyderabad Sunrisers became the last franchise to report COVID cases while Wriddhiman Saha tested positive for the virus. The team had to deal with the Mumbai Indians today, but with the hanging IPL, it remains to be seen if the players can leave the bubble organic or not

Need or Desire? Confusion in the IPL

While the pandemic’s dark clouds loom large over the world, there was controversy over whether the IPL is a ray of sunshine for the public or merely a cash cow for the BCCI. Was it fair that the cricket festival continues as the country struggles with its deterioration?

Let’s consider all sides of the argument.

Journalists and fans who criticize the IPL’s timing have taken to social media to blast the BCCI. On Twitter, journalist Faye D’Souza commented: “When we were younger, our parents wouldn’t let us play in the street when there was a funeral in the neighborhood due to the deceased and the mourning.

True, the IPL brings in a lot of money, but that doesn’t mean the organizers are cold. Because of the economic implications, the government has been hesitant to implement a nationwide lockout. Isn’t that what makes the businesses that carry out their trade barbaric?

Sport, like cinema, is one of the country’s most common stress relievers, and while the former can reach an audience through OTT platforms, there is no such option for sporting activities. Furthermore, the IPL contributes as a ray of sunshine for the public perception by giving fans a compelling excuse to remain indoors.

Everyone has his opinions on the country’s situation. And when it comes to cricket, each Indian is an expert. It is important to respect the views of each group and propose the best solution. Our country sails by stormy seas and all the new positives are like the wind to sails, propelled advances. And it is prudent to say that IPL is a burst of this burst that repairs positivity.

Therefore, these are difficult moments, especially in India and, even if we have tried to bring some positivity and a certain acclamation, it is imperative that the IPL is now suspended and everyone comes back into his families and his close-in these difficult times. The BCCI will do everything possible to ensure that all participants in the IPL 2021 have a safe and comfortable journey.

The BCCI wishes to express its gratitude to all health professionals, state associations, actors, support staff, franchisees, sponsors, partners, and all service providers who have worked tirelessly to make IPL 2021 a success, despite the challenging circumstances.
