Kohli: Confident there will be clarity soon on India’s tour of South Africa

The Hindu  

The suspense over India’s tour of South Africa continues, with the Board of Control for Cricket in India yet to take a call on the fate of the tour. While an official statement is expected over the next couple of days, India captain Virat Kohli confirmed that the team’s head coach Rahul Dravid has initiated a conversation within the group about the series. So, there are lot of things that you would want a clarity on as soon as possible,” Kohli said on the eve of India’s second Test against New Zealand, scheduled to begin on Friday. We have been talking to the Board and we are pretty confident that within a day or two or pretty soon, we will have clarity as to what is going on.” The heavily-mutated Omicron variant of COVID-19 was identified last month in South Africa, and cases have doubled in the country over the last 24 hours.
