IPL 2021 had to be called off, staging it in India was a mistake: Nasser Hussan
India Today
Former England captain Nasser Hussain feels that there was no option other than to call off IPL 2021, especially after the bio-secure bubbles had been breached in so many places.
Former England captain Nasser Hussain believes that the Covid-19 crisis in India left BCCI with no other option than to suspend the Indian Premier League 2021 indefinitely on Tuesday. Despite mounting criticism in recent days, the tournament had continued even as coronavirus cases surged across India. However, a suspension was on the card after Covid cases kept increasing despite the IPL bio-bubble. Hussain said that the players would have been uncomfortable after seeing the Covid-19 crisis in India evident through the contributions and donations they were making. "There was no option other than to call off the Indian Premier League. Not after the bio-secure bubbles had been breached in so many places. Enough was enough. This has become far bigger than a game of cricket," Hussain wrote in the Daily Mail.More Related News
