Sourav Ganguly saying IPL will happen at some stage is great news for all cricketers: Irfan Pathan

India TV News  

Cricket fans across the country are keeping their fingers crossed that the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League goes ahead at some stage later in the year as the country looks to return to normalcy post the coronavirus pandemic. Speaking on Star Sports Cricket Connected, Irfan Pathan said, "I just read the statement yesterday that they are trying their best to have an IPL. "In that regard, the statement coming from Sourav Ganguly as the president of BCCI that the IPL will happen at some stage, that's great news not only for Indian cricketers but for all cricketers around the world as well. In fact, Cricket Australia chairman Earl Eddings said on Tuesday that hosting the T20 World Cup in Australia at the end of the year looks 'unrealistic' amid the coronavirus pandemic. "While it hasn't been formally called off this year, or postponed, trying to get sixteen countries into Australia in the current world, where most countries are still going through COVID spiking, I think it is unrealistic, or it's going to be very, very difficult," said Eddings on Tuesday in a virtual press conference.
