England batsman Jason Roy believes that postponement of the much-awaited Hundred tournament is a missed opportunity for world cricket to benefit from.

“It is hugely disappointing but there are bigger things at stake,” he added.
“Obviously there was a huge incentive for the ECB, it was a huge competition that they put a lot of money into but it’s only right that it be delayed until next year,” he further said.
“You want the best players coming over and at the moment they can’t. Unfortunately, that’s just the way it is at the moment,” he concluded.
Earlier, the cash-rich Indian Premier League (IPL) was also suspended indefinitely owing to the coronavirus crisis.
