Two Indian cricketers tested COVID-19 positive in the UK. After the final match of the World Cup, the Indian players were on a 20-day leave. During the holidays, the players traveled with their families, some to Euro Cup football matches, some to Wimbledon tennis matches. After returning to the bio-bubble, the players were subjected to a corona test, which came back positive for two players.

But fortunately, both are doing fine now. While one has even returned negative tests since, the other will be tested on July 18 as he completes his 10th day in isolation on Sunday.

According to Sports Tak, Rishabh Pant's corona report came back positive a week ago and his condition is improving.
"Rishabh Pant it is then #Covid. Has been isolated and won’t travel with the team to Durham."

BCCI secretary Jai Shah had recently sent a mail to the Indian team on a tour of England. After a 20-day vacation, the players entered the bio-bubble in Durham and underwent corona testing. "Yes, a player has a corona. He is currently in isolation and will not travel with other members, "BCCI sources told PTI.

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).
