In a Live Instagram session with renowned comedian Archana Puran Singh, Chahal acknowledged the health concerns that have emerged due to COVID-19 in the entire world.
Recently, IPL team Delhi Capitals’ latest purchase Ajinkya Rahane, along with Mumbai Indians all-rounders Krunal Pandya and Hardik Pandya, backed the staging of IPL 2020 behind closed doors. They supported the idea of providing entertainment to the public in the current situation.
However, unlike his Indian teammates, Chahal told that the presence of spectators was necessary for the cash-rich league to be played and that without the fans, IPL 2020 won’t be as much fun.
IPL 2020 behind closed doors an option for BCCI
Organising IPL 2020 behind a closed door is an option BCCI has been considering ever since the first lockdown. In a Sportskeeda Exclusive, a team official recently explained that IPL 2020 without fans in the stadiums can survive.
The team official said that since most of the audience watches the IPL through their mobile phones or TV sets or the internet, IPL 2020 won’t lose much in terms of revenue.
