The official statement says...

Quote

The announcement came after Sunrisers Hyderabad’s wicketkeeper-batsman Wriddhiman Saha tested positive for COVID-19 along with Delhi Capitals’ veteran spinner Amit Mishra. Earlier on Monday, Chennai Super Kings bowling coach L Balaji along with Kolkata Knight Riders bowlers Sandeep Warrier and Varun Chakravarthy had also returned positive results.

I just hope and pray that everyone will be fine and no serious harm for anyone. This might be the toughest time for the families of foreign players as they will be worried too much for their husband or son. The BCCI is assuring the safety of the players but the problem in India no one is safe anywhere right now.

Not sure how the overseas players will be able to leave India as England, Australia and New Zealand has suspended flights from India and they will face prosecution if they fly from India and Australia went one step further saying they will face 5 year jail sentence if they breach those. So it is a tricky situation for everyone involved.

I guess they will need to wait untill the restriction has been removed. BCCI made it tricky, when they knew that the situation in India and especially in Maharashtra is so bad they should have stopped IPL for the time being and should have rescheduled it later. Strict action should be taken against those responsible.

First of all they made the mistake by staging the matches in two of the worst affected cities - Mumbai and Delhi. And the breach in bio-bubble occurred in one of these cities. If they had scheduled the tournament in the UAE, then they would have been able to complete it without much issues. They ignored the warning from a lot of medical experts and were adamant about their decision to stage the matches in India. Everyone is suffering as a result now.

^^^ Foreign players are in a tricky situation. They may be forced to stay in India for another month or so, if their countries don't want them back. Since the numbers are large, I hope that the Australian government will implement some sort of an exemption and will allow them back. There is already one loophole in the US travel ban. Those who are traveling to the US from India can quarantine themselves in a "safe" country such as Mexico or Turkey for 14-days before entering the States. I hope there are similar loopholes with Australia as well.

From what I heard, the tournament has been suspended for an indefinite period.

It is official the IPL is suspended indefinitely as more players tested positive as Sunrisers Hyderabad becomes the third team that is suffering from positive cases.

IPL is stopped on account of increasing corona spread among the players and staffs. This is a temporary for a week's time, based on the situation will be the further announcement on the league. Till date 29 matches have got over.

There is a BCCI meeting next week, and a decision on how to schedule the remaining matches will be taken during that meeting. But given the CoVID 19 situation in India, I am not hopeful of a resumption anytime during the next 2 months. And in case the tournament resumes within the next 2-3 months, I am not sure whether all of the overseas players will remain with the franchises.

As of now KKR players were asked to bo in the isolation for 7 days in that time they have three matches which will be postponed and CSK team members along with their bowling coach also tested positive so the entire CSK team is at risk now so they will conduct multiple tests to confirm is there any covid spread between the players but I don't see anywhere the league will be postponed but it may happen if bio bubble burst or more franchises.

Once the virus enters the bubble, it is very difficult to contain it. I still don't understand why Varun Chakravarthy was allowed back in to the bubble, without proper quarantine measures. From what I heard, he was allowed to reenter the bubble without even a single day of quarantine. This is a grave error from the part of the BCCI and now they are paying the price for their negligence. And the fact that Warrier got infected inside the bubble proves that now infection is spreading there. Delhi Capitals are isolating themselves, as they were the last teams to play against the KKR. Can the IPL go ahead under these circumstances?

I think they have already tested all the players inside the bubble and that's how they figured out that a couple of players have COVID. They are taking precautions but honestly, still nobody knows how COVID spreads. There are speculations that it is air borne and not just through cough droplets. Especially since many of the COVID carriers are asymptomatic. It could be through surfaces as well..and since there has to be contact with the outer world outside the bubble for ration like grocery items as well as other necessary products. It could be from literally any source. I'm sure they do sanitize anything that comes into the bio bubble but it is interesting how they could contract COVID.

They have already found out how the players tested positive. Varun Chakravarthy left the bubble through the green channel a few days back, and re-entered after getting infected. The official explanation is that he visited a hospital for a shoulder scan and that is how he got infected. But I am not ready to believe this story. Sandeep Warrier was infected inside the bubble, after coming in to contact with Chakravarthy. So in case Warrier can get infected, then I suspect that many more players might have got the virus. The double-mutant strain of the virus gives negative results sometimes.

So the way in which they will be responding and handling these situation determines whether they will be a laughing stock.

The BCCI might not cancel the tournament as per today's report as they are planning to shift the entire venue from Mumbai which is one of the worst affected place in the country right now to somewhere safe and i am not sure how they are going to do that safely and right now we are certain that the tournament will extend as i have no idea whether it will continue as normal and if that happens then other tournaments will also be affected including the WTC finals.

In the end BCCI now is responsible for getting IPL players infected with COVID19. This was a disaster waiting to happen and because of BCCCI's greed it happened.
Who is to be blamed, Sourav Ganguly as he is the BCCI president or Rajeev Shukla?

When the country is suffering from a pandemic and they thought about they could conduct the tournament inside a bubble they should have done things better, reports are that one of the players left the bubble and taken to hospital for check up and the mistake they did is that they never tested him or quarantined him before making contact with the rest of the players and then i heard some of the officials from the CSK also got infected. If that is the case then there is a lapse in the bubble they created.

A great level of incompetent shown by the most powerful Cricket board. Now, will these guys be taken to court and punished? I guess no!

Finally the match between RCB and KKR is postponed because the players from the KKR camp test positive but i am not sure how that happened as i thought they were in a bubble throughout the tournament and it is interesting to see how the BCCI will deal with the issue if more players starts to test positive and how many matches they will be extending or will they be forced to stop the tournament and continue at a later time.

The foreign players will be affected badly as the flights are suspended and some countries has banned even citizens from India and if the BCCI plans to pause the tournament they will be stuck in India until everything is sorted.

I was expecting something like this. They can't just lockup 2,000 people and then do 24x7 surveillance. At least one or two individuals will get tired of the isolation inside the bubble and go out for some adventure. The same thing happened with the PSL as well. And members from multiple franchises have now tested positive for CoVID 19 (CSK and KKR), which means that the infection is spreading inside the bubble. I don't think that the BCCI now has any option other than to postpone the tournament.

As of now the today's match has got postponed. Maybe the next step will be the postpone of the league. Already few players have left the league for health reasons. Ashwin is one among them, and in a tweet Ashwin's wife had mentioned of her family members ten of the tested positive for covid-19. The spread isn't under control, through any means this can happen and has happened.

I don't think BCCI will postpone whole league. BCCI was already thinking about continuing IPL in UAE if Covid situation get worse in India. Now situation is getting worse and it might take quite time to recover from it. So I am thinking they are going to move on UAE venue for both T20 world cup and remaining IPL. Also their is no sign of relief from covid.

Agreed, there is no relief from covid for years. Right now I don't think UAE will agree to conduct rest of the IPL league in their country. Right now UAE has stopped people entering from India. Maybe there'll be exception for players.

There are thousands inside that bio-secure bubble and it may take many days (if not weeks) to test everyone. And by that time, the infection will spread further. Only a few days back the BCCI had claimed that it is impossible for anyone to get infected inside the bubble. Looks like they were wrong. I still don't understand the decision to hold the tournament in India. Last time, UAE was the host and everything went smoothly. Why they wanted to change the venue to India?

Now that the confidence of BCCI is broken and the players in the bubble are infected and we will hear about more players testing posting like we saw in the PSL and they will be forced to pause the tournament. It is disappointing but we understand the situation in India and till now they were able to conduct the tournament without much issues but it was bound to happen once the new wave exploded.
