Reports | Road Safety World series called off due to coronavirus outbreak

With the health ministry issuing a notification that public gatherings should be avoided, the organisers had initially thought of continuing the remainder of the tournament behind closed doors at the DY Patil Sports Complex in Navi Mumbai. However, after a meeting with the players, the organisers have decided to postpone the league to either in May or in October, depending on the availability of the players. Meanwhile, Muttiah Muralitharan, Marvan Atapattu and Rangana Herath have already left for Sri Lanka. The other overseas cricketers are likely to fly out later on Thursday or on Friday.

According to Sportstar, the organisers stated: "All customers who have purchased tickets for RSWS on the website for tickets will be refunded online within seven to 10 working days. For customers who have purchased offline through the official PYC Hindu Gymkhana Box office and Maharashtra Cricket Association's Gate 1 Box Office for Pune matches, refund will be from PYC Gymkhana Box Office from March 14 to 17, 2020. Offline customers will have to produce their physical tickets proof to claim the refunds at the Box Office."
