India vs Australia: CA aiming mass relocation of players into NSW after COVID outbreak in South Australia, say reports

Firstpost  

According to the Australian media, Cricket Australia is continuously assessing the fast evolving situation. Sydney: Cricket Australia is reportedly bracing for a mass airlift of players and staff into New South Wales in an attempt to save the eagerly-awaited series against India as a coronavirus outbreak in South Australia threatens the start of the upcoming summer. As Western Australia, Queensland and Tasmania closed their borders to South Australia on Monday, the country’s cricket board on Tuesday got down to figure a way to get Australian white-ball, Test match and Australia A squads into Sydney to ensure the upcoming fixtures of the 300 million dollars season remain unaffected. “We will continue to provide updates as the situation evolves and look forward to hosting a safe and successful summer across all formats.” A fresh coronavirus outbreak in Adelaide on Monday forced Australian players, including captain Tim Paine, into self-isolation but the country’s cricket board asserted that the first Test against India there from 17 December would go ahead as scheduled. A cluster of COVID-19 cases in Adelaide prompted other states like Western Australia, Tasmania and the Northern Territory to close their borders with South Australia and impose a 14-day hotel quarantine on all visitors from Adelaide from Monday noon.
