Australia vs South Africa: Matt Renshaw tested COVID-19 positive but included in playing XI for third Test

Firstpost  

Australia cricketer Matt Renshaw tested COVID positive but was named in the Test team for the first time since 2018. “Australian batter Matthew Renshaw reported feeling unwell shortly before play in the third Test match against South Africa in Sydney and was separated from the squad. Hence, Renshaw is allowed to keep playing if he feels fit but if he doesn’t, and his positive COVID test is confirmed with a PCR test then he can be replaced by backup batter Marcus Harris, or Peter Handscomb, who has been listed on Australia’s team sheet as a sub fielder. It is worth noting that Renshaw is making his Test comeback after last playing in March 2018 and for the same reason, former Australia coach Justin Langer said there’s “no way” the batter would want to give his spot up.
