IPL 2020 Need Full Details Before Playing Kiwi & Sunrises Captain Williamson

With the International Cricket Council postponing the T20 World Cup, the stage is set for the BCCI to host the hugely popular Indian Premier League (IPL). The planning for the tournament to be held outside India is already on the way and reports have signalled that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is the most likely destination

The IPL’s biggest potential is in it attracting the best global talent. But in these times of the Covid-19 pandemic, the BCCI has the onerous task of meticulously planning the event. New Zealand captain Kane Williamson, who plays for the Sunrisers Hyderabad, has said that he is excited at the prospect of playing in the IPL but wants more clarity on the plans to host the tournament safely.

By all accounts the IPL, they’re looking to host that tournament which is a fantastic tournament to be a part of and attracts such an incredible audience,” Williamson was quoted as saying on the sidelines of a New Zealand training session at Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui on Wednesday by ESPNCricinfo.

“And throughout this time there’s been a natural lack of content so there is a real drive to see that happen and see it happen safely, which is first and foremost. It’s a shame to see the World Cup be postponed but I suppose it’s the nature of what we’re faced with in the current climate but exciting at the potential opportunity individually to see some cricket come on to the horizon. But I think a lot of people will be looking forward to that opportunity if at all it goes ahead safely,” the Kiwi skipper added.
