The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Tuesday announced a change of venue for Delhi Capital versus Punjab Kings from MCA Stadium, Pune to Brabourne – CCI scheduled on April 20 to avoid any further incident due to any undetected case during a long-distance bus journey in a closed environment.
The change of venue has been triggered due to five Covid-19 positive cases in the Delhi Capitals contingent.
The Covid-positive players are under isolation and medical observation. They will be tested on Day 6 and 7 and subject to both the tests being negative, they will be re-integrated into the Delhi Capitals bio-secured bubble.
From April 16 onwards, the entire Delhi Capitals contingent has been put under a daily RT-PCR testing procedure. The 4th round of RT-PCR tests conducted on April 19 have returned negative.
