New Zealand Cricket says their 10-strong Indian Premier League playing contingent are isolated in a relatively safe environment following the suspension of the tournament.
The IPL was suspended last night following an increase in players testing positive for Covid-19. India is in the grip of a second wave of Covid-19, with its number of incidents soaring past 20 million.
This morning a fourth team confirmed a player with a positive test with leg spinner Amit Mishra becoming the first member of the Delhi Capitals to test positive for Covid-19.
