The Indian cricket board has confirmed it is exploring the possibility of this year's T20 World Cup moving to the UAE if the coronavirus crisis in the country continues to worsen. India is scheduled to host this year's T20 showpiece event in October but the country has been struggled against a record number of Covid cases and deaths over the past week. The country reported 379,257 new cases and 3,645 fatalities on Thursday, the highest number of deaths in a single day in India since the start of the pandemic. The alarming situation has forced many foreign players to leave the ongoing Indian Premier League, with question marks over the feasibility of the league during the second wave. The UK and Australia are among numerous countries to effectively ban travel from India, and there are growing concerns over the feasibility of staging the T20 World Cup later in the year. Dhiraj Malhotra, Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) general manager for game development, hopes the tournament remains in India. "I've just been named one of the tournament directors, so I'm doing everything we can to make sure it happens," Malhotra told BBC's Stumped podcast. "We will be doing normal scenario, and worst case scenario, so with all that we're talking to the ICC at the moment." Malhotra said the UAE, which hosted the IPL last year, will be the back-up venue for the tournament this year. "It would be the UAE. We're hoping again that it would be done by the BCCI. So, we'll take the tournament there, but it'll still be done by the BCCI," he said. Malhotra's comments come days after the BCCI moved to assure players taking part in the IPL that they will remain safe under the tournament's bio security measures and urged to play on for "humanity". An email from Hemang Amin, interim chief operating officer at the BCCI, has been issued to squad members of the eight franchises in a bid to instil confidence in the tournament following several high-profile departures.

दक्षिण अफ्रिकामा होला त आईपिएल ? क्रिकेटको सबैभन्दा ठूलो फ्रेन्चाइज प्रतियोगिता इन्डियन प्रिमियर लिग (आईपिएल)को १५औं संस्करण नजिकिँदै छ। तर, अहिलेसम्म आईपिएल कहाँ हुन्छ यकिन भएको छैन। यो पटक आईपिएल कहाँ हुन्छ, भारत, युएई या दक्षिण अफ्रिका ? भारतमा कोरोना संक्रमण तीव्र रुपमा बढिरहेकाले यो पनि आईपिएल विदेशी भूमिमै हुने सम्भावना प्रवल छ । आईपिएल कहाँ आयोजना गर्ने त्यसको टुंगो भारतीय क्रिकेट कन्ट्रोल बोर्ड (बिसिसिआई)ले फेब्रअरी २०मा लगाउने छ । आयोजना स्थल सम्भवतः युएई या दक्षिण अफ्रिका हुनेछ। आईपिएपलमा भारतमा गर्न नसक्ने अवस्था आएपछि प्रतियोगिता अयोाजनाका लागि दक्षिण अफ्रिकाले पनि चासो देखाएको छ । दक्षिण अफ्रिका क्रिकेट बोर्डले आईपिएल दक्षिण अफ्रिकामा गर्न बिसिसिआईसमक्ष प्रस्ताव पनि गरेको छ। दक्षिण अफ्रिकाले आईपिएल आयोजनाका लागि युएईमा दक्षिण अफ्रिकामा भन्दा सस्तो हुने उल्लेख गरेको छ। खर्चका हिसाबले पनि मितव्यसी हुने भएकाले पनि बिसिसिआईले आईपिएल दक्षिण अफ्रिकामा गर्ने बारेमा छलफल गरिरहेको बताइएको छ। आईपिएल दक्षिण अफ्रिका गराउन सके त्यहाँ क्रिकेटको क्रेज थप बढ्ने हुनाले पनि दक्षिण अफ्रिका क्रिकेट बोर्ड आईपिएल आयोजना गर्न कस्सिएको हो।
