To all those who're making random calls to cancel the IPL, I'm sincerely unable to understand how it'll make any positive difference in our fight against covid. Only thing I get in response is people should not celebrate festival of cricket during pandemic...
Firstly, it's not celebration this year. It's for sake of mental sanity & positive thing to look after 4 hours a day. IPL matches are just like TV/movie shoots that haven't been stopped. Moreover, it's helping more than a few thousand people when the economy is in doldrums...
As far as argument of resource diversion is concerned, it's important to keep in mind that it's a private tournament with money invested from pvt. sponsors. No govt funding has been used in IPL. Moreover, players & franchises are spreading awareness msg to vaccinate & mask up..
besides many of them contributing a part of their earnings/Profits to Indian Healthcare sector. I can only see the positive impact of IPL. I hv been personally benefitted from it. I'll be grateful if someone tells me of the other side. #IPL2021
