MUMBAI: Maharashtra Sports Minister Sunil Kedar on Saturday said he is hopeful that the Covid-19 situation will ease enough for crowds to be allowed for the Tata Indian Premier League (IPL) matches that are set to take place in Maharashtra, starting from March 26.

The league matches of the upcoming edition of the tournament will be held across four venues - The Wankhede stadium, Cricket Club of India (Brabourne stadium) in Mumbai, DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai and Maharashtra Cricket Association stadium at Gahunje near Pune.
