ICC has given nod to hold both international and domestic tournaments but they are yet to decide on upcoming T20 world cup which is scheduled in September this year. International cricket has resumed with a bang as West Indies beat England at their den by four wickets. There will be two matches yet to be played in three-match test series and England is scheduled to host Ireland for three ODI series and Pakistan for full-fledged series that comprises of ODI’s, t20s and test cricket.
On a significant move Caribbean premier league one of the top-rated franchise based t20 league after IPL and BBL is all set to begin as per the schedule from August 18. The tournament is scheduled to hold between august 18 to September 10this year by following all safety methods. WICB has indicated that there will be strict protocols will be followed to minimise the virus transmission among the local population and the people. Players and officials will be asked to stay in a single hotel following all the safety protocols. They will also be in strict quarantine for 14 days before they begin their practice.

As a safety measure, all the matches of the Caribbean premier league will be played in Trinidad and Tobago. The move has been taken to hold the CPL despite the pandemic because Caribbean islands have not been severely affected by COVID-19 and only 136 active cases have been registered so far.
Players will be under regular temperature check-ups and before they depart they will be having normal blood test routines before departure. If any member is affected during the tournament all the members of that particular cluster will be self-isolated for 14 days which will curb the further spread. This year’s CPL will be the right mix of international stars and local Caribbean players. International stars like Rashid Khan, Chris Lynn, Carlos Braithwaite, Dwayne bravo, Alex hales and Kieron pollard are all set to entertain us with glittering performance. Cricketing pundits are expecting the tournament will be a different experience unlike previous editions and also believes that the tournament will give much-needed exposure to young Caribbean players who are expected to play a significant role with the absence of many foreign cricketers.
