The smaller boards, that earn from ICC, are not in favor of supporting the decision in case if ICC cancels the tournament. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is one of those boards that do not want postponement in the ICC T20 World Cup 2020.

“We are in May and there is still time. The ICC members should wait and see where this Coronavirus pandemic goes. A decision on staging the event can be taken even after say two months,” PCB official said earlier.

“There is no cricket being played right now but in two months’ time we will know what is the position because West Indies and Pakistan are to play in England if things go according to plan,” he added.
