T20 World Cup, to be held this year in October-November, likely to be postponed to 2022

Srinagar: The ICC T20 World Cup, to be held this year in October-November, is likely to be postponed by two years.

According to news agency KINS, the official announcement on the matter will be made after the ICC meeting on May 28, though the current situation amid the Coronavirus pandemic has left the apex board with little options but to reschedule the league to 2022.

The postponement of the T20 World Cup would pave way for the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to host the Indian Premier League (IPL) Season 13 in the September-October or October-November window.

IPL was earlier scheduled to start on March 29 but was suspended in the wake of the COVID-19 outbreak.(KINS)
