Indian team's break in UK to continue as of now despite England team's COVID scare
Three England cricketers infected with Covid 19, ODI squad in isolation; Stokes to lead against Pakistan
Three unnamed England players and four support staff members have tested positive for the virus, 48 hours after the conclusion of their ODI series against Sri Lanka.
England were forced to announce a brand new squad under the leadership of Ben Stokes for the upcoming ODI series against Pakistan.
The Indian players are set to re-assemble in London on July 14 and proceed to Durham for a two-week training cum first-class game against Select County XI.
“We are aware of the situation. Obviously, ECB and the local health authorities will provide us with any change in existing health safety protocols and that will be strictly followed,” a senior BCCI official told PTI conditions of anonymity.
“But we haven’t been told anything as of now. The players have not yet been told to cut short their downtime,” he added.
