While Cricket Australia, New Zealand Cricket, Cricket West Indies and the England and Wales Cricket Board have slashed salaries of players and staff, the BCCI plans on keeping things normal, meaning the board may be better placed financially in comparison to others. “The BCCI has done some cost control after the elected office-bearers took charge last October. It has been reported that if the IPL is given a miss, the BCCI is set to incur losses of approximately Rs 4000 crore. If that is to happen, the BCCI will likely put forward the idea to stage the IPL as a replacement for the T20 World Cup. “IPL not happening will have a huge impact and we will assess the situation before taking a fresh call,” said Dhumal.
