Former England captain Michael Vaughan believes the cancellation of the fifth Test between England and India at the Old Trafford was done for benefitting the IPL and the money it brings.

“Let’s be honest, this is all about money and the IPL. The Test has been cancelled because players were petrified of catching Covid and missing the IPL. In a week or so we will be watching the IPL and the players will be running around smiling and happy. But they should have trusted the PCR tests. We know a lot about this virus now. We know how to manage and handle it better. Players are double vaccinated and biosecurity can be raised very quickly,” wrote Vaughan in his column for The Telegraph on Saturday.
