The Corona implications on IPL hopefuls

In these times of uncertainty, there's a degree of certainty in Tushar Deshpande's tone when he describes his present predicament. "Neither am I going anywhere, nor is the IPL," says the Mumbai fast bowler. Stuck at home, staring at his fish in a bowl to deal with the restlessness, Deshpande is aware that the resumption of cricket isn't a wait for Godot. It will happen eventually. But the absolute lack of clarity over when IPL 2020 will commence has put a brief pause to the ambitions of several first and second timers in the tournament. Deshpande was bought by Delhi Capitals for his base price of INR 20 lakh. While you might consider it to be good money for a young domestic player who's still making his way up the ranks, it's not really the biggest concern for Deshpande. It's more the missing out on an opportunity to showcase his wares on the IPL stage that he's vexed about. Cricket Odds Unlike in the case of Sanjay Yadav, son of a daily

No cricket until July 1 as ECB restructures summer calendar

No professional cricket will be played in England and Wales until at least July 1 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the ECB have confirmed, while there will be a Board meeting next Wednesday (April 29) to discuss the future of The Hundred. The governing body had previously announced that no cricket would be played until May 28 but that date has now been an extended. An ECB Board meeting on Thursday (April 23) approved a number of measures which would significantly restructure the English season should some cricket be possible this summer. If matches can begin, they will likely be played behind closed doors without supporters in "bio-secure" grounds to ensure the safety of all those involved in the matches. The ECB have already started planning for such eventualities but even then, government approval would be necessary before any matches could take place. @ How To Bet On Cricket Any revised schedule will focus on playing international cricket and the Vitality T20 Blast

Tendulkar - The wizard with the ball

A trip to Chennai's famed MRF Pace Academy to become a pacer didn't quite turn out the way he wanted. But Sachin Tendulkar, the bowler, did come up with some crucial spells during his India career, and provided plenty of variety too - with his seam-ups, offspin and legspin. In a chat with TOI, the ICC hall-of-famer took a trip down the memory lane and recalled some of his memorable bowling efforts. ODIS vs West Indies, tri-series, Perth, 1991 Defending 126 on a bouncy WACA, India ran out of all their four pace bowlers' quota by the 40th over. In desperation, skipper Mohammad Azharuddin threw the ball to Tendulkar to bowl the 41st over. Anderson Cummins and Patrick Patterson were the last remaining. The 18-year-old Tendulkar had Cummins caught by Azhar at first slip of the last ball of the over. Windies finished at 126, and the match was tied. "Patterson had played an on-drive off the previous ball. Subroto [Banerjee] was standing at mid on and Pravin Amr

BCCI officially suspends IPL 2020 indefinitely

With the Coronavirus pandemic not relenting, the 2020 edition of the Indian Premier League has officially been suspended indefinitely by the BCCI. This comes just two days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi's address to the nation, announcing the extension of the lockdown period until May 3. "The health and safety of the nation and everyone involved in our great sport remains our top priority and as such, the BCCI along with the Franchise Owners, Broadcaster, Sponsors and all the Stakeholders acknowledge that the IPL 2020 season will only commence when it is safe and appropriate to do so," a BCCI release stated. @ Cricketbettingtipsfree The tournament was originally scheduled to begin on March 29 at the Wankhede, with the finalists of the 2019 edition, Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings facing off against each other.

Big News - IPL 13 set to be postponed

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has informed the franchises that the 2020 edition of the Indian Premier League stands postponed, according to a PTI report. The development, which hasn't been announced officially, comes in the wake of an address to the nation from Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who on Tuesday (April 14) announced that the lockdown measures to combat the COVID-19 threat will remain until May 3. "Yes, the BCCI has intimated us that IPL has been postponed for the time being but they are hopeful of finding a window later this year as and when things normalise," a veteran franchise official was quoted as saying by PTI. @ Cricket Betting Tips The tournament was originally scheduled to begin on March 29 at the Wankhede, with the finalists of the 2019 edition, Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings set to face off against each other.

ECB announce financial aid following Covid-19 crisis

The ECB chief executive Tom Harrison has labelled the current covid-19 crisis "the biggest challenge the ECB have faced in the history of the game in the modern era" while announcing a financial aid package worth 61 million pounds to help support all levels of cricket in England. An ECB Board meeting on Tuesday (March 31) approved the package which Harrison said was designed to address the short term issues being felt across both the professional and recreational levels of the game in order to simply "keep the lights on". He did not rule out further measures as the crisis unfolds. "We are aware the effects will be long standing and they will be very significant on us," Harrison said. "We are trying to work around the clock to understand that impact and take some short term steps to help counties and recreational cubs to get through the immediate impact. "Right now we are addressing the short term and addressing it aggressively as we fe

IPL 2020 will probably be a shortened tournament - Rajasthan Royals co-owner

​Manoj Badale, one of the co-owner of Rajasthan Royals, has revealed the franchise owners have discussed the possibility of holding the Indian Premier League behind closed doors but it's still unclear when the tournament can be scheduled. While some of the owners expect the tournament to be played around June, Badale stressed he doesn't see the possibility of it happening in the near future. "As with the English Premier League, the atmosphere is a huge part of the spectacle, but, again, these are unprecedented times and sport needs to be put in the right perspective overall. If the way of ensuring the cricket economy survives is by playing behind closed doors, so be it," he told BBC 5 Live. "In India, the COVID phenomenon has only really just landed so when we have our owners' conference calls, there's still an expectation that there may be a way of the games being played in June. Personally I can't see it happening until much later in the ye
