Allan Border can't envisage Australia hosting a Twenty20 World Cup without spectators later this year, declaring it would defy belief. The T20 World Cup, which remains the only major men's cricket tournament which Australia are yet to win, is scheduled to run from October 18 until November 15. "It's going to be hard for us to justify having a World Cup when we can't get people into the grounds. "I can't see the T20 World Cup surviving without any people there." Cricket Australia has started cost-cutting measures and is bracing for a significant financial blow because of the health crisis.
