The International Cricket Council (ICC), the main body in cricket, is worried about the World Test Championship. Because of the coronavirus, several bilateral series of the World Test Championship have been postponed. So the ICC is worried about whether the postponed bilateral series and the rest of the series can be completed before next year’s final.
The World Test Championship was played on the field last year. The final of the World Test Championship is scheduled to be held next year. But Corona turned everything upside down. Multiple Test series have been postponed in all the Test playing countries including Bangladesh. All in all, there is a lot to think about in the Test Championship. The ICC has not been able to take a decision on the new schedule of the postponed bilateral Test series.
However, the ICC will be able to think about the postponed series once cricket returns to full swing after the corona outbreak. Jeff Allardyce, chief executive of the ICC’s cricket operations division said, “We are in discussions with member countries on how to create a revised schedule for series that have been suspended due to corona infections around the world”
The final of the World Test Championship is scheduled to be held at Lord’s in June next year. Jeff Allardyce added: “We’re thinking more about the postponed series. The postponed tour needs to be rescheduled. However, it will be made by the member countries. Not the ICC.
