REVEALED: England's cricket stars will miss out on £4MILLION after the Indian Premier League, which is NOT insured, was suspended indefinitely

England stars are set to lose out on a combined £4m after this year's Indian Premier League was suspended indefinitely because of the coronavirus pandemic.

With the Indian government extending the national lockdown until May 3, tournament organisers have informed the eight franchises of the world's glitziest Twenty20 tournament that there is now no date in place for the competition's 13th edition.

The start of the IPL had already been deferred once, and was scheduled to start on Wednesday, but the quickening spread of Covid-19 in India has caused a rethink.
