New delhi date. March 8, 2020, Sunday

The government has begun taking precautionary measures in the wake of the situation caused by the Corona virus in the country. In a media report, it is likely that three ODIs between India and South Africa will be played in closed stadiums starting on March 12.

The three-day series is to be held between March 12 and 18 between India and South Africa. The Indian Cricket Board has announced earlier that they are aware of the risk of coronavirus and are also in contact with the sports ministry.

However, he has not yet announced a solid decision for the series against South Africa. The health ministry has asked schools not to hold large meetings and to avoid going to a place where citizens are more crowded. In such a situation, it is up to the Indian Cricket Board to decide what to do next.

BCCI President Sourav Ganguly had earlier said that there was no threat to the IPL from Corona. Our medical team will take all precautionary measures.

Significantly, it was decided to hold some matches of the Italian Football League in a closed stadium, after which those matches were postponed. The top basketball league in America - the NBA - has also taken into consideration some cautionary measures to play in closed stadiums.
