Cab said, “When our armed forces are sacrificing their lives to protect the country, then it is also our duty to stop sports and entertainment for some time and give priority to the national interest.”
Cricket stops, the country united
This is not the first state level tournament, which has been postponed after IPL. Cricket activities across the country have come to a standstill in the current situation. The whole country is currently united and stands with the brave soldiers engaged in protecting the government and the country.
