A sudden spike in the number of cases of Coronavirus in Maharashtra has resulted in restrictions being implemented on the movement, once again. Due to the same reason, the ODI series between India and England that was supposedly scheduled in Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune will now allow no spectators and will be hosted behind closed doors.
The rumors were heard of changing of location for the series but that is not happening because location shifting might involve health risks for players and the players are expected to stay in a safe and secure area and play the matches. The England tour of India started with the test match behind closed doors but subsequently, half-capacity spectators were allowed by the government. Further, the tests were held in Chennai and Ahmedabad and the next is also scheduled to be hosted in Ahmedabad, going on with 50% capacity.
