T20 World Cup 2020: Disappointed Fans React With Memes and Sad GIFs After Tournament Is Postponed

The ICC T20 Cricket World Cup 2020, scheduled to be held in Australia later this year, has been postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. The tournament was originally supposed to be held between October and November but has now been pushed to a further date owing to the current circumstances. The ICC announced that the postponed T20 World Cup will now be held next year around the same time although dates have yet not been ascertained. The postponement of the 2020 T20 World Cup, therefore, widens the gap for the BCCI to stage IPL 2020. T20 World Cup 2020 Update: ICC Postpone Global Event Amid Coronavirus Pandemic.
