The suspension of the 14th edition of the Indian Premier League mid-season due to the surge in Covid-19 cases inside the bio-bubble has raised speculations regarding the shifting of the World T20 venue from India to the UAE. The tournament, which is set to place in October-November this year, is slated to take place in India.

The right-arm speedster added that the T20 World Cup should be shifted if it leads to depletion of resources in India and/or is unsafe for the general public. “If it’s going to be a drain on resources or it’s not going to be safe, then I don’t think it’s right to play it over here.
