However on 24 April 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) confirmed that no professional cricket would be played in England before 1 July 2020,[3] with the tour being postponed.[4] In May 2020, Clare Connor, the Director of Cricket for the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), suggested that India could take part in a tri-series with the touring South African team during September 2020.[5][6] However, on 20 July 2020, reports stated that India would not tour, due to the impact of the pandemic in India, with the ECB looking to add further matches between England and South Africa.[7]
