2 Indian players tested Covid +ve, Rishabh was spotted enjoying Euro 2020 days ago….PICs here

The Indian team will play a warm-up game from July 20 to 22 against a County Championship XI team that is being arranged by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) after a request from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).

New Delhi: In a setback for Team India, 2 Indian players have been tested positive for Coronavirus & have been isolated. Though they remain asymptomatic, their participation in game is almost ruled out.

But, the bigger question is – whether there was any carelessness on part of cricketers also. When matches are being held without spectators to ward off Corona, Rishabh Pant was spotted enjoying Soccer at Wembley, a few days ago.

Here are pics from the stadium.

Speaking to ANI, sources in the know of developments said both the players were asymptomatic as such and there were minor signs of cough and cold when they were tested for COVID-19.

“Luckily, there is nothing to worry as one of the players has already returned negative since testing positive, the other player will be tested on Sunday and is currently in isolation. He is asymptomatic as well and we are confident that he can join the camp soon after negative reports,” the source said.
