ShoonyaSifar Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 What an irresponsible bunch of buffoons. They have young families traveling with them but have shown no respect to guidelines attending unapproved crowded events. England may have relaxed covid rules but these guys are intelligent enough (or maybe not) to read about rising cases. Embarassing to see the teams both in England and in Sri Lanka being so irresponsible. No lessons learnt from the IPL fiasco. Norman, raki05, Gollum and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment
New guy Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Just now, rkt.india said: There were no rules to break. BCCI had given strict instructions about avoiding crowded places. 1) They needed ECBs permission to attend such events which they didnt. ECB said they didn't receive any requests 2) Jay Shah had personally written to each team member and staff and asked them to avoid crowded places before the series considering they had IPL after this raki05 1 Link to comment

No lessons learnt from the IPL fiasco. they've been there for 3 months and attended everything from the football WC to Wimby. I guess by now they're not at that level of paranoia they might have been when they arrived in England. Link to comment

Surely this is the end of Kohli's captaincy in all formats. Surely Shastri needs to be fired right away. LOL, don't underestimate his Bollywood PR. They will portray them as 'patients' who need our love and affection. #GetWellSoon Once IPL starts everything will be forgotten. Gollum, Norman, raki05 and 1 other 4 Link to comment

I guess by now they're not at that level of paranoia they might have been when they arrived in England. BCCI was more worried about IPL being affected, what they do before series start is no concern as there was enough time to isolate (like pants case) and it didn't put test or IPL at risk. But once series started, its another story rollingstoned and Gollum 2 Link to comment
rollingstoned Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 it will be a logistical nightmare to arrange for a one off test next year. i know it is a matter of the ipl but they should find a way to complete it in the next few days imo, especially if no one tests +ve again. Link to comment

Likely to be WTC F repeat. Chance of a historic series win, now in tatters because of Kohli and Shastri. These 2 have been a net negative for Indian team, absolutely useless.

BCCI will go through the IPL even without our test players. It takes 4-5 days for symptoms to show up. Say a player gets infected after 5 days. Then he gives it to another. Then that player mingles with his IPL team before he tests posutive. . It can be a disaster Kohli, pant, bumrah, rohit, etc are all major star players for their team and IPL draw. What will IPL be without them, even if it's only in initial matches Edited September 9, 2021 by New guy Gollum 1 Link to comment

QuarantineTormentino Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 This shouldn’t go unpunished, England should be awarded this last test. Let these idiots feel the WTC points table heat. Even that might not be enough. We haven’t managed to get out unscathed through any of our last three tours. This is quite frankly embarrassing at this point. I dread what will happen come the t20WC ShoonyaSifar 1 Link to comment

Already BCCI has gone out of its way & allowed families with them. Look English players are not being allowed families in Australia for Ashes. These a***holes take everything for granted.
