CA said they had a meeting with the health department of Queensland on Monday (19-10-2020) and were assured of conducting a full-fledge of matches with India.

Furthermore, CS said, “ This is a really a complex plan that concerns the safety and health of the community, staff members and players, and to finalize all the arrangements, the clarification is needed.”

“We would like to give our regards to the BCCI for their understanding and patience as we are working for a successful result.”

As per the report, Queensland was the most populous state in eastern Australia and containing coronavirus. That’s why it closed its borders to other parts of the country in August.

Because of the health security, the state election, which was scheduled to be held on 31st Oct and rugby league match was deferred.
