The first two editions of the league were held in 2018 and 2019. The third edition, which was originally slated to be held in 2020, couldn’t be organized due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The pandemic has also affected the ongoing season of Indian Premier League (IPL) as several international players have left the tournament mid-season due to the worsening situation in India.
