The ongoing coronavirus pandemic has brought the entire world to a complete halt and the sporting arena is no exception. Almost all sporting tournaments around the world have either been pushed back indefinitely or have been cancelled.
Even the world’s biggest sporting festival- the Olympics was postponed by a year and would now be played in 2021.
The virus has so far infected more than 29,00,00 people globally while claiming over 2,00,000 lives.
There is still no sure shot treatment of the virus and social distancing, self-isolation and maintenance of hand hygiene remain the only potent weapons to protect oneself from contracting the infection.
