By Saurabh Sharma April 25, 2020 • 14:10 PM View: 794

New Delhi, April 25: The outbreak of the coronavirus has seen the Australian government seal the international boundaries till September 30. But Cricket Australia is not only keen to conduct the T20 World Cup in October, but also have India travel Down Under for the bilateral series at the end of the year. In fact, CA CEO Kevin Roberts is keen to add an extra Test to the four-match series. But the BCCI is not willing to commit at this point in time.

Speaking to IANS, a BCCI official said that a decision on that can be taken at the right time and any planning at this stage would be too early in the wake of the pandemic.
