It is known that the IPL tournament has been stopped in the wake of the tense situation between india and Pakistan. It is known that the schedule for 17 matches that were part of the IPL tournament has been released in the wake of the ceasefire agreement between the two countries. The IPL will resume from the 17th of this month. At such a time, former indian cricketer cum commentator sunil gavaskar has made a key suggestion.
In the IPL tournament that is about to start again, he suggested that entertainment programs should be put on hold this time. The reasons he gives for this are convincing. It is noteworthy that the bcci should also think in this direction. sunil gavaskar has already said that, “Some families have lost their close and dear ones due to the pakistan tragedy. As a mark of respect to those families, they want the remaining matches of the IPL season to be held quietly. The remaining matches of this tournament should be limited to the game only. Allow spectators. But.. no cheerleaders.. no DJs between overs. It is really a good way to respect the families who have lost their loved ones,” he said.
According to the latest schedule released, starting on May 17, the matches will be held at six venues. There will be double-header matches on two Sundays. The matches will be held at Bengaluru, Jaipur, Delhi, Mumbai, Lucknow, and Ahmedabad. The first qualifier will be held on May 29, the eliminator on May 30, the second qualifier on june 1, and the final on june 3. However, it is known that the venues for the play-off matches have not yet been finalized. Overall, it is said that there is a high chance that sunil Gavaskar's suggestion will be taken into consideration.
