    IPL 2020 was postponed from March 29 to April 15

    The coronavirus outbreak led to the postponement of IPL from March 29 to April 15. Previously, it was stated that overseas players will only be available post April 15 as the Indian government imposed travel restrictions, except for a few official categories. It was also proposed that the IPL could be played behind closed doors to avoid mass gatherings.

    Delhi Government had banned all sporting events

    The franchise owners are hoping that some of the state governments, which have denied permission for hosting the IPL matches, will give a go-ahead in case the tournament commences on April 15. Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia had earlier ruled out any possibility of hosting sporting events involving large gatherings in the national capital. This also included the Indian Premier League.
