IPL 2020: Overseas players' participation in doubt in T20 league after Indian government cancels all visitor visas over coronavirus fears
New Delhi: The participation of foreign players at this year's IPL came under severe doubt after the government ordered fresh visa restrictions to contain the spread of novel coronavirus even as the BCCI decided to adopt a wait and watch policy for now. The BCCI will wait for the next couple of days to decide its next course of action after the government issued fresh advisory with a ban on all existing foreign visas, except a few categories like diplomatic and employment, till 15 April in the wake of new positive cases of novel coronavirus in the country. "Please give us two days. It's not possible to give you concrete details at the moment," a senior Board office bearer told PTI on Wednesday. India has reported 60 positive cases in the outbreak which has led to over 4,000 deaths globally. Having the IPL, starting 29 March, played in empty stadiums is an option but a decision will only be taken at the league's Governing Council meeting in Mumbai on March 14
