But do they have enough infrastructure and facilities to conduct this tournament? How many stadiums do they have, outside Colombo?

Srilanka have almost 11 international cricket ground although most of the times. Most of them are in Colombo, however they have some other popular outside colombo too like Hambantota, Pallekele, Dambula. I think they have more than enough ground.

Why will BCCI hold IPL in Srilanka?

The situation in India is pretty bad considering the number of cases getting reported daily. In such a situation IPL will be postponed but not played in a different country. Already Indians are boycotting Chinese products and BCCI is in the limelight for not removing the main sponsor of IPL which is a Chinese company and now if they conduct it outside India, things will go completely against them.

Forget about IPL there are many big issues that INDIA is currently facing. This year it will not happen.

Hopefully BCCI will understand this all and announces postponed this year's event because right now all things going against them and if they will insist for this then surely they will face some serious trouble from common peoples and may be from government as well because they cannot ignore main sponsor and its not good for them.

Sri Lanka is a slightly better option. But do they have enough infrastructure and facilities to conduct this tournament? How many stadiums do they have, outside Colombo?

I don't think Sri Lanka will be interested in hosting IPL if given the opportunity thanks to the current World Cup investigation situation. They don't trust their own players which is why I don't think they will even consider the financial incentive in this case.

And finally, my most persisting question regarding this. If they stage the IPL 2020 sometime during Q4 2020, don't they think that it will impact the popularity and revenues of IPL 2021 (which is scheduled for Q1 2021)?

IPL 2021 would definitely be affected in this case, but the losses from IPL 2020 and 2021 would be minimal though I am not expecting IPL to be conducted anytime this year.

^^^^ All sorts of rumors are floating around regarding the IPL.

A few hours back, I came across this article:

https://www.hindustantimes.com/cricket/a-mumbai-only-ipl-2020-is-a-possibility-report/story-xqX8s415kww6OhRzJeo4yI.html

Quote

One major IPL shareholder has suggested the idea of the tournament being held entirely in Mumbai and with the ICC yet to make a concrete announcement regarding the future of the T20 World Cup, the BCCI seems to be stuck in limbo.

It is just a ridiculous suggestion to stage the IPL in Mumbai, when they have thousands of new cases being detected everyday.

Then I noticed the post from JSRAW. This suggestion is also not very practical. GCC nations are reeling from the pandemic right now. The real picture is not out, because there is heavy under-reporting as far as the cases are concerned. IMO, the tournament can't be hosted in any of the GCC nations (including the UAE). Sri Lanka is a slightly better option. But do they have enough infrastructure and facilities to conduct this tournament? How many stadiums do they have, outside Colombo?

And finally, my most persisting question regarding this. If they stage the IPL 2020 sometime during Q4 2020, don't they think that it will impact the popularity and revenues of IPL 2021 (which is scheduled for Q1 2021)?

Haha at first i thought the same then reality hit me on the head that travel is banned every where so, no chance. I would say still its some thing and i don't mind if Indian board doing same thing in India as well but BCCI eyes are on IPL only.

Do you really think it is a realistic possibility that we would see IPL this year in India, it might be possible if they take the tournament elsewhere, the situation in India is really going down the drains and i am witnessing it first hand and i am personally terrified seeing the situation that every other place is marked as red zone and i am stuck in the financial capital and i have no idea what the situation would be.

Yeah, not in India but UAE or Sri Lanka according to the reports. BCCI can't afford to cancel IPL tbh, if they do then they are going to suffer heavy lose around INR 4000 cr. News of WC cancellation giving them some hope so let's see.

IPL 2020 not happening in India! BCCI official calls UAE, Sri Lanka front-runners for season 13

Quote

The 13th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) looks all but set to be moved out of the country. In a recent conversation with IANS, a BCCI official hinted that the tournament is moving out this year. He picked Sri Lanka and UAE as front-runners to host the tournament. The report adds that BCCI is waiting for an official word regarding the future of T20 World Cup before taking a final decision regarding IPL 2020.

"We are yet to decide on the venue but in all probability, it is going outside this year. The condition in India doesn't look suited to have so many teams come in at one or two venues and then create an atmosphere which will be safe for the players as well as the general public even though the games may be played behind closed doors,” the official told IANS.

"The race is between UAE and Sri Lanka and we will need to decide on where we host the league depending on the situation there with regards to the coronavirus pandemic. Logistics also need to be looked into, so we will decide soon," he added.

I think its the end for the T20 world cup this year as the virus cases continue to grow in Victoria where the final was meant to be played. Its a shame as Australia have been doing a good job at containing the virus but a cluster started when overseas travellers arrived in Melbourne and the staff and security at the hotels contracted the virus and now its out of control so the T20 world cup most likely won't go ahead now.

I think except Newzealand every country is facing this problem. At first, it feels like the virus spread has been controlled and later on you realize it is far from being controlled. I am so much pissed with this CCP led China that I feel pity for those who reside in that country. This virus outbreak will not end and it will go on like this if we do not find a cure fast.

^^^^ At first I thought that three international teams would be playing this inaugural edition of 3 Team cricket. My hopes were dashed when I checked the article. Three South African teams would be taking part, each of them lead by Quinton de Kock, Kagiso Rabada and AB de Villiers. Anyway, I will be watching the match, in case TV coverage is available in India.

Cricket enthusiasts will really bad for now because T20 world cup is something more attracted to new generation people but this year we are going to miss that entertainment and also they missed IPL as well.Its time for to save human kind from deadly virus so safe distance from everyone to save you as well as others.

@vella85 this is sad news for fans like me who were eagerly waiting for the T20 World Cup, and I can’t believe that few days ago situation was completely under control, and there were even talks of fans being allowed back in the stadium, and hence it’s difficult for me to understand why did Australia suddenly let it’s guard down?. Further IPL will definitely be scheduled if the World Cup is off, but with no fans in the stadium and limited over seas player’s, I'm not sure if it’ll be as entertaining as it usually is?.

Most chances this will telecast on TenSports and SuperSports as both are very good for cricket in this region and South African have good connections with them this could be very interesting how three teams going to do this for Cricket revolution. Wink

Interesting news Ladies...

(More games + Revenue +easy to handle logistics in short period of time) After that England can play test series against Pakistan.

Hopefully we will see Cricket resume and they will come up with something to add these tournaments since Pakistan and West Indies are in the English shores.

Even its very good and profitable idea but we all know about England Cricket Board they are very conservative about many things so I am sure its not going to happen we will able to watch twenty/20 tri series on English soil in next month.

It's been close to a decade since that match and these idiots are trying to dig dirt up on something which concluded legitimately a long time back. The recent 2019 World Cup final was way more controversial, but the NZ government didn't bother with digging dirt up.

This just goes to show the pathetic state of the Sri Lanka sports government currently. No wonder their current team is in such a bad state right now.

I explained about this in another thread, to be frank it is a great move by the cricket body to show the fake claims by their minister who tried to cast a shadow over their players and if there is an investigation the callousness in which a politician made these fake claims can be proved to the entire country and the world.

I am stunned to hear that Sri Lanka has actually ordered a probe into the 2011 World Cup final.

Random Thought
West Indies and Pakistan are already setting their camps in England for test series or some limited overs cricket. How about ECB use this opportunity in their favor and come up with the one Triangular T-20 series? Eng vs WI vs Pak .. That would be great initiative.

So what is stopping them doing a triangular series, they have not scheduled any series and it is possible to set up an international tournament in a short period of time as i think it is a long process to get approval from the authorities and the visa status should be changed if they are to compete for a triangular series after reaching the shores of England, if there is no other tournaments scheduled up i would like to see that happen and hopefully the cricket board could sort the visa issues.

Let's look at the schedule

Windies playing 3 tests against England with in 20 days window (8th July-28th July) then Windies players are free as their series against South Africa is postponed already. And Pakistan test schedule is not confirmed yet but according to their schedule they are playing 3 T-20 match series against England around 29th August. Big one month window (28th July - 29th August) So if ECB try to pull some string then they can manage Triangular T-20 series in this slot, they might want to cancel the T-20 series against Pakistan, controversial approach but we are living in interesting times and Triangular series seems more interesting to me in comparison of Bilateral. (More games + Revenue +easy to handle logistics in short period of time) After that England can play test series against Pakistan.

Good idea indeed. Right now, all the cricket boards around the world are facing financial crunch. They need to conduct a few major tournaments as soon as possible. Else they may be forced to return money to the TV channels and the sponsors. And at this point, T20 tournaments suits the narrative. They are easier to manage, and the net revenue can be higher when compared to ODI or tests.
