Ravi Shastri backs IPL in place of the T20 World Cup 

Team India coach Ravi Shastri during an interview with The Times of India recently said that organising a tournament like IPL (post the crisis) would be easier than staging a T20 World Cup. Ravi Shastri said that the IPL or a bilateral series with a touring party can be played in “one or two cities”. But the same cannot be said about hosting 16 international teams at the T20 World Cup for a month-long international event.
