Sydney, May 22: While many of the current and former Australian players have themselves said that they dont see the likelihood of the World T20 happening in October-November as per initial schedule due to the restrictions that have come in due to the coronavirus pandemic, former Australia skipper Allan Border has made it clear that the Indian Premier League (IPL) shouldnt be given priority over the showpiece event.

"(I'm) not happy with that, the world game should take precedence over a local competition. So, the World T20, if that can't go ahead, I don't think the IPL can go ahead," Border said on ABC's Grandstand Cafe radio program.
