In the backdrop of COVID-19 threat, India's sports ministry has issued an advisory to all the National Sports Federations, including the Board of Control for Cricket in India, to "ensure that no public gathering takes place in any sporting event" in the country.

The advisory further stated that if the sporting event cannot be avoided, it should be held without the spectators. This could mean that the next two ODIs between India and South Africa (scheduled in Lucknow and Kolkata) and the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League, in part or full, could take place in front of empty stands.

"You are advised to adhere to the advisories issued by the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare and ensure that no public gathering takes place in any sporting event," the Government of India release read. "In the event the sporting event cannot be avoided, the same could be done without allowing gathering of people, including spectators."

 

There are many confusions amongst the athletes at this moment. Two Advisories are issued by the Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports for matches abroad and the domestic. There's no restrictions on playing but guidelines to be followed strictly in the larger interest of health.

The IPL Governing Council is set to meet on Saturday to discuss the viability of hosting the tournament amidst the threat of COVID-19. The IPL is scheduled to begin on March 29.

BCCI, on its part, has been monitoring the situation. Ahead of the first ODI between India and South Africa in Dharamsala, the medical staff of the national set-up briefed the players, team support staff, State Associations in relation to the standard guidelines handed out by the WHO and the government.

The BCCI has also asked the players to be careful about their interactions with fans. Even the players are set to bump fists instead of shaking hands during the ongoing India-South Africa series.

According to the WHO, the novel coronavirus has affected 118 nations so far. Around 120,000 people have been affected by the virus with over 4,300 deaths across the globe. In India, 73 people have been laid low by the virus. On Wednesday, the WHO also declared COVID-19 a pandemic

The Indian Premier League's Governing Council is set to meet on Saturday (March 14) to discuss, among other things, the viability of hosting IPL 2020 amidst the threat of COVID-19, which as per the current schedule is set to begin on March 29. The decision on having a meeting with regards to this was taken on Wednesday evening, soon after reports of Maharashtra government's objection over the hosting of the event emerged.

Speaking on the Board of Control for Cricket in India's stand on it, Brijesh Patel - IPL chairman told Cricbuzz, "We are monitoring the situation for now and will have an update once a decision is taken."

Earlier in the day, Rajesh Tope, Maharashtra's Health Minister had said, "All ministers in the cabinet meeting today reached a consensus to either postpone or have matches without selling tickets."

Even as a cricket tournament - involving former cricketers - is being organised by the road safety wing of the Maharashtra government currently in Mumbai, which is witnessing sizeable crowds, IPL might be forced to go the way of some of the other sports leagues in the world, who are playing in front of empty stands.

Even as questions are raised over the possibility of IPL going forward amidst the COVID-19 scare, the South Africa tour of India is set to take place, with the BCCI sending out advisories for the spectators, teams and others involved with the game. "The Board of Control for Cricket in India's (BCCI) medical team has been monitoring the current coronavirus COVID-19 situation. All the players, team support staff, State Associations have been briefed about the standard guidelines issued by WHO as well as the Ministry of Health & Welfare - Government of India," BCCI's press release reads.

For the spectators, "the State Associations along with the healthcare service providers/hospitals are ensuring that appropriate information, education and communication material in the form of posters/hoardings and public announcements regarding the precautions to be taken by everyone against the spread of coronavirus COVID-19 are being provided."
