In the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, the IPL had to shift its start date from March 29 to April 15. However, at the moment, the possibility of the event starting on the scheduled date is unlikely. Given that the virus is still having its presence in the country, reports suggest that BCCI have presented the franchises with eight different IPL calendars. The reports also added that all the matches could be played in five to six venues depending on the clearance from the respective state governments. This comes in after the Delhi government did not give its clearance for the state to host the IPL.
