IPL 2020: "INDIA WOULD CERTAINLY LIKE TO HOST IPL" - BCCI PRESIDENT GANGULY

BCCI President Sourav Ganguly has said India would 'certainly like to host' Indian Premier League 2020, but said nothing about the tournament has been decided so far.

"We can’t say what will happen in the days to come. It is tough to predict. We are looking at all options. We are still not sure when cricket could resume,” Ganguly told Sportskeeda.

IPL 2020's fate could be decided on June 10 when the International Cricket Council (ICC) takes a call on the T20 World Cup 2020 scheduled to be held in Australia in October-November.

There are talks that the IPL could get a window if the T20 World Cup is postponed. There are also reports that India could consider taking the IPL to another country if the situation at home does not improve.

"If at all IPL does happen, we don’t know where it could happen. India would certainly like to host the event, provided the environment is safe. Right now, we are not in a position to say anything. It is too early. We are yet to officially discuss the IPL schedule. But it depends on the safety of the environment. Saving human life and breaking the coronavirus chain are more important for all of us," Ganguly said.
