The biggest news that has been doing the rounds in the world of cricket is the cancellation of the 5th Test match between England and India that was scheduled to take place at Manchester.

As many as 4 members of the Indian support staff tested positive for Covid-19, and as a result, it was decided that the 5th Test match will not take place. And, this has led to some former players stating that the 5th Test was canceled because the IPL starts in 8 days’ time.

Former England bowler Steve Harmison even reckoned that the cancellation of the 5th Test might be the beginning of the end of Test match cricket, and the BCCI is flexing its muscles in the cricketing world.

With several people stating that the IPL was the main reason why the Indian players pulled out of the 5th and final Test match, Pathan tweeted that his tooth has fallen off and wanted to know whether he can put the blame on the IPL.

“My tooth fell off, can I blame the IPL?” tweeted Irfan Pathan. You can see Irfan Pathan’s tweet below.
