All cricket is currently on hold due to the global COVID-19 crisis which has brought the world to a standstill. The Indian Premier League (IPL) has also been postponed. The BCCI is looking at a September 25 to November 1 window for the 13th edition of the cash-rich league.

Meanwhile, former India batsman V.V.S. Laxman has hailed the effort of Syed Amjad who has been feeding lorry drivers and cleaners.

Taking to Twitter, Laxman wrote: “Syed Amjad and his family have been feeding 180 lorry drivers and cleaners in Sadashivapet, Telangana. It is so wonderful to see the common man doing incredible service in these challenging times. Hats off to Amjad and everyone who is doing their bit.”
