Cricketers Quarantined Ahead Of IPL
X
Before coronavirus, the cricketers used to have a fun time while they are playing IPL. But now, the times have changed as they can't step out for giving autographs or get some fresh air ahead of the Indian Premier League(IPL).

We are aware that this year IPL is staged in UAE as the virus infections in India increasing rapidly.

On Thursday, Kings XI Punjab, Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders became the first set of teams to arrive in the UAE.

Chennai Super Kings, Royal Challengers Bangalore and defending champions Mumbai Indians arrived in the UAE on Friday. The remaining teams will fly this weekend.

However, the cricketers who reached the UAE not allowed to venture out of their rooms during the six-day isolation period.

The players, who were already tested multiple times before starting, will now undergo a six-day isolation period with testing on day 1, 3 and 6. If they clear all the tests, they will be qualified to enter the tournament and start training.

It seems a bit embarrassing for the players to stay indoor all the time. They are doing some fitness exercises inside the rooms and having little talks in balconies. Seems like the players are missing the real IPL fun this time.
