The T20 World Cup 2020 to be hosted by Australia in October-November is set to be postponed when the ICC officials meet this Friday. For the last couple of months, the ICC has been delaying a final call on the T20 World Cup as it wants to make a correct call. However, a decision on the showpiece event looks inevitable now.&nbsp;

The postponement of T20 World Cup may open up a window for the BCCI to conduct the much-talked-about <a href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/ipl">Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020</a> which has also been postponed indefinitely due to COVID-19 pandemic.&nbsp;

There has been a lot of talks about the postponement of the T20 World Cup 2020, which could be pushed back to 2022 as India is scheduled to host the 2021 edition of the tournament with the 50-over World Cup in 2023 also scheduled to be played in the country.&nbsp;

The BCCI is also chalking out a tentative window for the <a href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/ipl">IPL 2020</a>, irrespective of ICC’s call on the T20 World Cup.&nbsp;

"The year started on a horrible note and there's been no relief on any front. But as time goes by, we need to take things head-on and ensure that we remain prepared for any eventuality. Cricket is no different. It is time for the BCCI to start planning for the year ahead," Dhumal told TOI.

The IPL 2020 was originally scheduled to commence in March but was suspended indefinitely following the COVID-19 outbreak.
