Pune ODIs to be played without spectators

The three-match ODI series between India and England is set to be played behind closed doors with an eye on the COVID-19 situation. But whether all the games will be held in Pune or the last ODI will be shifted to Mumbai is a decision that is yet to be taken. Speaking to ANI, sources in the know of developments said that the BCCI is yet to take a call on whether all the games will be held in Pune or the final game will be played in Mumbai.

"We will not have fans with an eye on the COVID-19 situation. But whether the last game moves to Mumbai or all the matches will be played in Pune is a call that is still to be finalised. We also need to keep the English cricket board in the loop," the source said.

After the four-match Test series gets over between India and England, both teams will square off against each other in five T20Is and then the action would shift to the 50-over format.
