Yup like, India doesn't have any other priorities than hosting IPL? Why you guys so noob, even they will try to host
I was not talking about conducting the IPL, i just said there are options if they really wanted to carry on with the tournament on a topic where they were discussion about moving the event outside India.

no International players will be allow to enter into Indian territories and if no International players involved forget about brand value of IPL, BCCI cant take risk of loosing of Brand Value. we are loosing 100's of life daily, infecting 1000's of daily and we fool are discussing here, when to start IPL. UFC is not not a team game and it's individual sports and personal gain to those who got involved. In IPL International level players play, don't think any board will allow to give NOC to their player in this pandemic time.
Assuming they were carrying with the tournament no international players will be allowed to play but if you say that the brand value of IPL is players outside BCCI control then you are wrong. The brand value is the amount of population they have and the amount of money they can dispense. I accept the argument that UFC is a individual sport but what if they could test everyone and no outside contact until the tournament is over Wink.

IPL nor any sporting events is more important than the safety and security of the players. If the government decides to give a green signal for the IPL to divert the issues that is going on, then we might see them conducting inside India and not anywhere else.
No one will debate against safety and security of the players but what if they can conduct the sporting event with all the necessary precautions. The UFC recently conducted an event and some of the sports body is trying to find ways to restart everything and if the BCCI could test every player and when they are in a public space they can wear masks and gloves and once all the players are in camp and everyone is tested then there is a possibility.

Developed countries now ready for this all and we have Korean Soccer now from 16th May Bundesliga is also going to start mean they done their own work and now can take chance but for me here in Sub-Continent we are not near this all so we cannot take any chance and if BCCI feel any alternative is better then they can take their own decsion but as many saying safety is priority for all.

BCCi will never go to UAE as now its not profitable for them and Sri Lanka is better option for them but still most chances they will cancel this year event and try to have some better work for next years event as peoples will more hungry and they can take good advantage with this all.
Is there any country that is corona free  Tongue. Every country is struggling to cope up with the situation and some made a decision to accept the virus and move on economically but that does not mean that sporting events will be starting soon, IPL nor any sporting events is more important than the safety and security of the players. If the government decides to give a green signal for the IPL to divert the issues that is going on, then we might see them conducting inside India and not anywhere else.

This is the time where we all get in front of our TV and watch the live IPL matches and enjoy the wickets, four, sixes etc. But now this time it has being a different only by watching the highlights of previous seasons and seeing some spectacular catches, magnificent sixes hits compilations and enjoying the game as other like one of the cricket fans. Will have to wait for the next annoucement of IPL status.


We have to bear all this as sometimes unexpected does happens. Do not hope for IPL to be played anytime soon. The death toll in India is increasing every day, as in most of other countries too and in these situations gaming / Sporting events are highly unlikely to happen.

I would be very surprise if Australia say yes to this proposal, 99.99% they are going to reject this idea even in hypothetical scenario. They might opt for T-20 World cup any day over IPL as WC is more lucrative for them. 

I am not sure whether the T20WC is more lucrative when compared to the IPL. IPL is a multi-billion USD event, but then if they stage it in Australia the revenues may be lower. I agree with your post. Australia may prefer the World Cup over the IPL. That said, there is a proposal from the UAE to stage the tournament there:

The United Arab Emirates, which had hosted the the first leg of Indian Premier League (IPL) in 2014, has emerged as one of the options if the Indian cricket board eventually decides to shift the 2020 edition out of the country.
IPL is profitable for BCCI but not much for CA. they might get some percentage of revenue cut from the BCCI, that's it ... bigger share belongs to BCCI. Plus there is some romanticize factor with the World Cup.

If BCCI thinking about shifting IPL then Sri Lanka seems better candidate to me as its close to India so not much fuss about logistics and SriLanka has lower cases of Covid-19 in comparison of UAE.

Here in Tripura, the state government is saying that their tax revenue has fallen to 1/10th of the normal level. I am sure that the situation is the same with the other states as well. The government can't go on with this lockdown forever, and IMO it won't be extended after May 17th. But regarding the IPL, now it may be too late. In a couple of weeks, the monsoon season will start. The only possibility of staging the IPL is if they move the tournament to Australia. (With COVID pandemic peaking in the GCC, I don't think that the UAE is a viable option to host the tournament).

Already majority (95%) of people don't pay taxes in India and now this... Every country facing financial challenges due to lock down and whole India is in same bracket as well.

Tbh there is no chance for IPL this year, but considering the current scenario in India, it wouldn't come as a surprise if the Govt asks BCCI to go on with the tournament to get some taxes.
Even if they decide to go through with the IPL season this year, the entire country will probably boycott the government and criticize them heavily for focusing on money under current conditions when saving lives is the priority.

The government can't go on with this lockdown forever, and IMO it won't be extended after May 17th.
I disagree. Certain governments have already extended the lockdowns beyond the 17th to the end of the month or something. They will continue extending the lockdown while providing some relaxations here and there in my opinion.

Even when the number of cases are rising day by day, the Govt has relaxed the lockdown conditions and I'm sure the situation is going only to be worse.
But I think there is hope for T20 world cup in Australia as the conditions are getting better there.

As cases are on rise government already have many things to look at and would not like to take any chances and considering this where gathering is a mass number they would avoid it. Another option just could be without audiences the match is played and but then too with this some ground staff would be require and just in case if any covid case happened to player this may just fall back badly on government and opposition party will tear them.

I mentioned this somewhere before too that even if Australia become 100% corona free country, it cannot held the T20 World cup because the other countries players will have to travel to Australia and it is possible some staff may be affected with covid-19. Another fact is that international travel is also very much restricted.

The BCCI has suggested a two week quarantine for the players, in order to move forward the Australian tour of India. The same can be done with the T20 World Cup as well. But then, it may be a bit more complicated because players from a total of 16 countries, and the support staff needs to be quarantined. I am not sure whether Cricket Australia is ready for this.

^^ If any State or politician pushing this shitty idea in this critical situation then i would like to see them sitting among the crowd along with the BCCI official.

Agree with you fully, seriously how people even think about any sports, when millions of poor people going their states/villages hungry by walk who lost their jobs, and that guy is thinking about running IPL events. Today highest number of cases in India, crossed 4200, and we really don't know how many asymptomatic there, who is spreading Corona without knowingly 
Yeah, cases are increasing rapidly and who know what might happen if any sports get approval in India. I want to see cricket badly as well but not in such conditions.

In one of my earlier posts, I had supported Australia going ahead with the preparations for the T20 World Cup. But that was just because the pandemic situation in Australia is under complete control. On average, they have 10-20 new cases per day, compared to 4,000-5,000 in India.
Yeah, they are in better place.

BTW I don't mind if BCCI working on any back-up plans or different scenario even if there is 1% chance of situation get backs to normal in coming months. Just be ready, no matter what....

Since the gate collection amounts for a smaller proportion when compared to the other franchise leagues, the BCCI may be aiming for conducting the matches behind closed doors (i.e without any crowd attendance). But then, who will guarantee for the health of the players, match officials, workers at the stadium.etc?

We really lost empathy, seriously these noob don't understand we are not developed country,where sports or entertainment matter much. We are poor country where 60-70% people still depends on agriculture or daily wages.
