After two players from Kolkata Knight Riders and one each from SunRisers Hyderabad and Delhi Capitals returned positive for Covid, the IPL Governing Council and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) unanimously decided to postpone the T20 tournament indefinitely.
While it is still not clear as to when the remaining season of the IPL will be played, BCCI president Sourav Ganguly said that the remaining part of the T20 tournament will not be played in India due to the "organisational hazards."
