London, April 21: England's white-ball series against arch-rivals Australia has reportedly been pushed back to September due to coronavirus pandemic that has gripped the entire world. So far, more than 2.4 million people have been infected by the virus while in excess of 1.7 lakh individuals have lost their lives worldwide.

According to a report in The Daily Mail, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) concluded that their white-ball series in July won't be feasible in such conditions and asked their Australian counterparts to postpone it by at least two months.
