The BCCI is going to get a huge economic shock due to the suspension of the IPL. The board has allegedly suffered a loss of about 100 to 125 crores due to each suspended IPL match, due to loss of revenue from broadcast rights, sponsorship deals, ticket sales and match-day operations. Even with insurance coverage, the net deficit of each match canceled is about half of the total estimate, ie BCCI is losing about Rs 60 crore for each match.

Despite officially a week’s break, the situation is still being strictly monitored and the remaining matches may be re-resurrected in the August-September window. Such changes may affect India’s Bangladesh tour and already uncertain T20 Asia Cup.

In addition to financial impact on BCCI and franchisees, suspension has also affected sellers, merchandise vendors, cab drivers and local businesses dependent on match days. While international players and associate employees have temporarily returned to their country. The BCCI hopes that Giostar and Title Partner Tata will soon resume with assurance from sponsors and broadcasters.
