Cricket: Kane Williamson forced into extreme measures to avoid India's Covid-19 outbreak 27 Apr, 2021 04:25 AM 2 minutes to read Results from another huge weekend of sport. Video / NZ Herald NZ Herald Black Caps captain Kane Williamson has clearly illustrated the lengths to which players in the Indian Premier League are going to avoid the country's rampant rate of Covid-19 infections. On Tuesday, India broke the world record for daily Covid-19 infections for a fifth consecutive day, reporting nearly 353,000 new cases. And it added 2,812 deaths to its overall toll of more than 195,000, which experts say may be a vast undercount. However, Twenty20 cricket's premier domestic competition continues to run without major disruption; though cracks are starting to appear in player confidence.
