    BCCI could allow 50% crowd attendance for India-England Tests
  • There is some good news for Indian cricket fans as the BCCI is contemplating allowing 50% crowd attendance for the Tests against England.

    The four-Test series sees two matches each being played at the Chepauk in Chennai and the Motera Stadium in Ahmedabad.

    The BCCI is set to take a cue from Cricket Australia who allowed the entry of spectators in the Australia-India series.

  • The report adds that the BCCI is also considering the fluid public health situation due to the coronavirus pandemic and if the numbers keep increasing in either Chennai or Ahmedabad, then the decision will change accordingly.

    "If you allow 50% crowd with all necessary precautions, then it will be an indicator if we can also allow spectators during IPL in India," the source said.
