The outbreak of the Corona Virus has brought the world to a standstill. It has also halted all the sporting events as a safety measure for the people and avoid the mass gathering of crowds. The cricketing calendar has suffered because of the same. Australia’s limited-overs captain Aaron Finch shares his opinion on getting the cricketing world back on its feet in a post-COVID-19 world.

Finch says that everyone will have to make compromises. He also suggested that the bilateral series will be more important than ever.

Speaking with Cricbuzz. Finch said, “It will get to a point, not just for IPL but for all cricket, there’ll be a compromise from a lot of different stakeholders – organizations, countries, players, the ICC – to get cricket back and countries thriving again.”

Finch also feels things will be clearer once the ICC Board meeting takes place on Friday.

“I think the ICC are meeting next week to start discussing the FTP (Future Tours Program) again. In the next couple of weeks we’ll have more idea what that looks like, what compromises will be made for different tournaments and countries.

“Everyone working together to get the best result for everyone. In some situations where it’s not ideal for Australia we have to compromise and give. It will be one big effort, I think,” he said.

Finch added, “With India coming out here this summer, Kevin Roberts (CA CEO Roberts) said it was a nine out of 10 (chance). I think there will be given and take in a lot of different things like that.”
