Cricket Australia supervisor Kevin Roberts has made light of the possibility of the Twenty20 World Cup proceeding in 2020, saying the October-November plan was under "high hazard" due to the coronavirus pandemic.
"Clearly, we've been confident up and down that it could be organized in October-November however you would need to state there is an extremely high hazard about the possibility of that incident," Roberts told journalists in a video approach Friday.
"In the occasion that doesn't occur, there are expected windows in the February-March period, October-November the next year.
"What's more, there are suggestions here for the ICC over various years. So there's a great deal of multifaceted nature for the ICC to manage."
The International Cricket Council, the game's reality overseeing body, has the last say about whether the Oct. 18-Nov. 15 occasion will proceed.
On Thursday, the ICC conceded choices over the competition until its next executive gathering on June 10.
India's cricket board (BCCI), which is set to have the accompanying release of the competition in 2021, is watching out for improvements as a deferment could open up a window for the Indian Premier League.
The rewarding establishment based competition, which should begin toward the finish of March, must be delayed inconclusively because of the pandemic and the BCCI faces a $530 million plunge in income if the opposition neglects to proceed.
The IPL's transition to an October-November space could affect Australia's planned T20 arrangement with West Indies (Oct. 4-9) and India (Oct. 11-17) affirmed on Thursday, with various Australian internationals contracted to IPL groups.
Australia's cricketers would require exceptions from CA to be pardoned from universal obligation and play in the IPL yet Roberts declined to state whether CA would give them.
"The subject of the IPL will be tended to when a choice is made around the T20 World Cup, that is the key impacting factor there," he said.
