The new date for the match will be announced today afternoon. Before the start of the ongoing tournament, the likes of Axar Patel, Devdutt Padikkal, and Nitish Rana had contracted the virus. Mumbai Indians scout Kiran More was also among the few officials to have tested positive.
Several groundsmen at the Wankhede Stadium also tested positive, but all the 10 IPL games were held smoothly thereafter. Meanwhile, the Virat Kohli-led Royals Challengers Bangalore presently occupy third place (10 points) in the standings. #KKRvsRCB #royalchallengersbangalore
They won their first four games this season before losing one to Chennai Super Kings. Kolkata Knight Riders, on the other hand, are on the 7th spot with two wins from seven games. The two sides would have locked horns in this season's 30th game tonight. #KKRvsRCB #IPL2021
India continues to be gripped by a dreadful second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. Considering the situation, quite a few overseas players have withdrawn from the IPL. Australian duo Kane Richardson and Adam Zampa returned home due to "personal reasons." #IPL2021 #CoronaPandemic
Australian Andrew Tye and England's Liam Livingstone had earlier headed back, owing to the COVID-19 surge. Recently, umpire Nitin Menon and Ravichandran Ashwin left the bio-bubble after their family members tested positive. #biobubble #IPL2021 #andrewtye #IndiaFightsCorona
