To all those who& #39;re making random calls to cancel the IPL, I& #39;m sincerely unable to understand how it& #39;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& #39;s not celebration this year. It& #39;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& #39;t been stopped. Moreover, it& #39;s helping more than a few thousand people when the economy is in doldrums...

As far as argument of resource diversion is concerned, it& #39;s important to keep in mind that it& #39;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& #39;ll be grateful if someone tells me of the other side. #IPL2021 https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> #CovidIndia
