Club cricket is almost closed all over the world due to Corona. It has not even started in England. Prime Minister Boris Johnson is not in favor of starting club cricket right now. Training in our country could not be started. Meanwhile, club cricket is being played in Germany for a month. Although the one-day event is closed here. For this reason, T20s are being played against leg. Cricket has started in 14 out of 16 states of the country. The match is being held at home ground, so that the players do not have to travel much. Cricket is not included in contact sports in Germany. In such a situation, its organization has been approved.
Brian Mentley, chief executive of the Germany Cricket Federation, said, "Our experts said that there is no possibility of Corona getting out of the game. Sports have been included in non-contact sports here. Because of this we are allowed to play. We have also made rules for social distancing for the event. The trend of cricket in the country is increasing. Here most of the players change helmets. But now it has changed. Now the helmet is sanitized before giving it to another player. The umpires sanitize the ball after every over. The wicketkeeper is not allowed to keep from near the stumps. There are about one lakh 96 thousand cases of corona in Germany.
Mantle said that the increase in refugees of Afghanistan in the country helped to promote cricket a lot. In 6 years, the number of clubs has increased from 70 to 370. There was also an increase in women's cricket. Talking about the International T20 ranking, the ranking of women is 27 while that of men is 33. He said that the number of teams in the 2026 T20 World Cup can be reduced to 20. In such a situation, our hopes of playing the World Cup will increase. Mentley said that most of the football fields are in the country right now. We are soon going to make the first international level ground in the country, so that T20 International match can be organized.
