Travel Restriction in India Cause No Indians Broadcaster in CPL 2020 and Stop Players like Pravin Tambe playing.

The league that has been severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic is the Caribbean Premier League (CPL 2020), which is scheduled to start from August 18. COVID-19 has taken the world to an unprecedented, probably warlike standstill and has also impacted global equity markets. The pandemic had influenced all of the sporting activities. The stock market has also taken on a huge hit, and the demand for Indian sports TV rights has also shrunk.

CPL 2020 still does not have an official broadcaster in India for the CPL broadcast. There’s a possibility that Dream Sports’ FanCode will live-stream the games, according to a story from Ahmedabad Mirror. Around the same time, if FanCode gets the live streaming rights, Star India or Sony Pictures Sports Network will have to promise the CPL 2020 that their digital channels, Disney+Hotstar and SonyLIV, do not broadcast those matches. There are also rumours that Discovery might potentially gain CPL broadcast rights in India which was impossible a year or two ago.

There’s even a question mark on Indians moving to West Indies. Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) and St Lucia Zouks are two Indian-owned franchises that are still working on CPL-associated Indian travel plans. Pravin Tambe, an Indian spinner, is scheduled to make his CPL 2020 debut with TKR but his travel plans are still in doubt. Pravin Tambe will need to charter a flight to Dubai from where he can fly to Trinidad, where the CPL will be held from August 18 to September 10. Another choice is to take the aid of Vande Bharat (Overseas Bound Repatriation) flights.

There is also uncertainty as to the involvement of South African players such as Imran Tahir, Tabraiz Shamsi, Rassie van der Dussen, Rilee Rossouw, Anrich Nortje and Colin Ingram in CPL 2020 as South Africa ‘s borders are being closed. To make matters worse, players will have to endure 14 days of isolation which means they’ll have to enter the Caribbean by August 4.
