Star Australia pacer Pat Cummins said on Wednesday that the Indian Premier League (IPL) would be a "great fit" if the T20 World Cup is postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The T20 World Cup is slated to take place in Australia in October and November, but due to the coronavirus pandemic the global tournament is in doubt.
"That would be nice ... the IPL would be a great fit," Cummins told reporters here as quoted by wwos.nine.com.au.
"(It's) T20, brings together the best players in the world... it would be great for cricket.
"You have millions and millions around the world watching that format and I'm sure this year could potentially be even more after a long break off cricket," said Cummins who was roped in by Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) for a whopping $2.2 million.
"There's a lot of reasons why I want it to go ahead, but the main one is it's a great tournament," added the 27-year old No.1 ranked Test bowler.
