The wrath of the coronavirus has stopped the world, and the pestilence has wreaked havoc across the globe since its outbreak. The epidemic has infected more than 12 million people worldwide and has killed more than 69,000 people through the novel Coronavirus. The spreading of the virus has forced everyone to stick to the lockdown and stay inside the home carefully.
Due to the pandemic, the worldwide sports scene has stopped. Amid the lockdown, there were no matches for fans to witness as all major sporting events were suspended or postponed due to coronavirus pandemic.
Meanwhile, the BCCI and the Government of India have made a special announcement for the fans. At a time when every Indian cricket fan is bored alone, the BCCI and the Government of India have announced that they have decided to broadcast cricket highlights from the 2000s. As DD Sports prepares to broadcast matches from that era, Indian fans will be much impressed by the revival of the glorious 2000s.
“2000s cricket rewind. The BCCI and the Government of India are giving you cricket highlights of the past. Sit on @ddsportschannel and enjoy the action, ”the BCCI announced on Twitter.

IPL 2020 also looks bleak due to coronavirus outbreak
Star Sports recently announced that it would be showing the India vs. Pakistan encounter between the 21-day lockdown. Star Sports has announced that the World Cup matches between the two rivals since 1992 will run from April 4 to April 10.
With no direct cricket or sporting events, the channels are doing their best to provide engaging content for their fans. The entire cricket fraternity will be open for IPL 2020 from March 29. However, with the spread of COVID-19 around the world, the tournament went even further on April 15. Considering the current scenario, the chances of the match seem narrow, and several reports have suggested that the 2020 edition of the cash-rich league will discontinue.
