Pat Cummins, who was bought by Kolkata Knight Riders for 15.5 crores ahead of IPL 2020, has revealed that his life hasn’t changed since the auctions in December. The right-arm pacer, who is No.1 ranked in Tests, is currently the highest-paid foreign player in the history of the marquee T20 league.

According to the latest report, the thirteenth edition of the Indian Premier League could in all probability be staged outside India with Sri Lanka and UAE being the frontrunners as hosts. It has also added that the BCCI are awaiting the ICC’s final word on the fate of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup.

Sheldon Cottrell, on learning about Gautam Gambhir’s ‘desperate’ hiring comment, has said that he has no idea why the former India cricketer said so. Kings XI Punjab bought Cottrell for a whopping Rs 8.5 crore ahead of IPL 2020 and Gambhir opined that it was a rather ‘desperate hire’.

Arun Dhumal has admitted that it will not be easy for the Indian players to get themselves back into action for IPL straightaway without a window available for preparation. Dhumal also assured that the BCCI will not take any decision that would risk the health and safety of the IPL stars.
