IPL 2022: Another Positive Case of COVID-19 In Delhi Capitals Camp?

As reported by PTI on Monday, an overseas Delhi Capitals player tested positive for COVID-19. DC physio Patrick Farhart had earlier tested positive for the virus. ??

An overseas player in the Delhi Capitals team has tested positive for COVID-19, forcing the franchise to delay their travel to Pune for the next IPL 2022 match against Punjab Kings on Wednesday.

It is understood that an Australian all-rounder showed some symptoms and a Rapid Antigen Test was performed which came positive.

“DC were supposed to travel to Pune today but the entire squad members have been told to retire to their respective rooms and as per protocol RT PCR is being done to ascertain whether there is an outbreak in the camp or it is an isolated case like Patrick Farhart,” a BCCI source told PTI on Monday.

It is understood another member of the support staff has also shown symptoms but RT-PCR results are awaited.

“All teams are staying at Conrad Hotel in Pune where BCCI has created a bio-bubble. They were supposed to travel but now it has been delayed. Obviously, all those whose results would be negative would carry on with onward journey tomorrow,” the source said.

The development comes after team physio Farhart tested positive last week. “We were supposed to leave today but have been told to stay in room until further notice,” said a team source. With COVID cases rising outside the IPL bio-bubble, the virus threat inside the protected environment has also increased.

Last season, the tournament had to be suspended midway due to the second wave before it could be completed in the UAE in September-October.
