BCCI president Sourav Ganguly said he won't be able to provide any latest update on the future of IPL 2020 until he speaks with fellow office bearers on Monday (April 13). 

The tournament was postponed by the BCCI from March 29 to April 15 due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

But with the situation only worsening by each day in the country, and the central government likely to extend the official 21-day lockdown imposed in wake of the pandemic, it seems impossible that the annual event will be taking place in the near future.

"I will be able to give an update on that on Monday after speaking to the other office-bearers (of BCCI). But practically speaking, when life has come to a standstill everywhere in the world, where does sport have a future in this," Ganguly told the New Indian Express.

Ganguly is really disappointed by the crisis that the world is enduring because of the contagious virus. "It's terrible," he said. "In my 46 years of life, I never experienced anything like this. Not just that, the world has never seen anything like this. And I hope nobody sees this situation again. The entire world is thinking how many people may die in the next two weeks! It's unbelievable."

The former India skipper also revealed his daily routine in isolation, saying he has been spending time with his family and doing some BCCI and ICC work from home. 

"Locked down like everyone else, I am at home with family. These are rare moments in the sense that others normally stay at home. I don't. That has changed. I'm doing some BCCI and ICC work. I rest, watch a bit of TV, do a bit of fitness training at the gym I have at home."

"The lesson is, it's one life. So be happy, live everyday and live up to potential. Nobody had seen or expected this. But the unexpected happens at times. You just have live your life in whatever way you can and do what makes you happy. That's very important," Ganguly added.
