The coronavirus is starting to have a major impact on the international sports arena. Many major international sports events have already either been canceled completely or suspended to a later date.
As reported earlier the IPL was suspended last week following a travel ban imposed by BCCI on international cricket players. This in combination with three Indian states refusing to host any cricket games in fear of spreading the coronavirus.
This means no online betting on cricket as long the games are canceled.
In addition to many sports events being canceled, most major training camps have been canceled as well. Latest being Chennai Super Kings camp which was supposed to be held Saturday.
