It's about the cricket community working together at a difficult time for everyone and, one of the many great things about the Caribbean is, we can play cricket all year round. There has long been a special relationship between the cricket communities in the Caribbean and England and we wanted to make it clear we will do everything we can to help," Grave said.As of Wednesday, the UK has reported 1,960 cases and 72 deaths due to the deadly virus as per the data presented by the John Hopkins University.Many sporting events across the world have been affected by the COVID-19 and as a preventive measure, all the upcoming tournaments/competitions are either postponed or cancelled.( With inputs from ANI )
