Final Decision on IPL 2020 will be on Sat 14th March at IPL Governing Council Meeting.

It is wrong to target IPL while India-SA series is allowed. IPL had always been a soft target.

Going by the same logic all movie theaters, malls, tech parks must be closed

Though I don't trust the fake news machine called NDTV, the news is true indeed, but IPL GC will take a call on that..

IPL 2020: Government directive on coronavirus puts participation of overseas players in doubt
According to “Details of Visas Granted by India” manual on the Ministry of Home Affairs, Clause 40 (xv) specifies: “Foreign nationals who are engaged in commercial sports events in India on contract (including coaches) like Indian Premier League, Indian Soccer League, etc. with remuneration. They may be granted ‘B-Sports’ Visa with multiple entry facility for 13 appropriate period. Such a foreign national shall comply with all the statutory obligations like payment of taxes, etc.”
Since B-Sports - or even Business Visa is not specified in the list of exceptions by the Health Ministry, it is highly unlikely that any overseas cricketer can join his IPL franchise at least before April 15.
