Its better to hold the test next year. Covid is an accepted reason under the contract signed in the ftp. It would be same if england had cases. If england had cases theu would have made scapegoat out of Indian infrastructure.. now india should do The same ..its all

the fault of England..even ecb ceo was present in the book ceremony as confirmed by Piers Morgan in his tweet

@rkt.india thinks like a school child where eh believes a teacher should hold every players hand to protect them. Shahstri and coach attending book signing is coincidence. No incident in english camp is coincidence.  England stilll ready to play with indian players but indian players refusing is coincidence 

 

The fact that england held many sports with crowds, including euro trophy with lakhs of crowd without any incident is also lost on them

 

They will blame everyone under the sun except their pampered players. Such fans deserve these spoiled players and such results.

That's now how things work. Agreement is there.

Is this a joke or what? Can we not go one tour without COVID gaffe ffs:facepalm:how embarrassing would it be if a similar thing happens during the wt20 and we end up pulling out of the tournament

 

People were literally dying outside the cricket stadiums and these arseholes still played IPL.

 

They only care about money.

Don't think IPL will be compromised. Cases didn't happen in IPL bubble. Worst case, test players will miss half of it, till they are fully clear. 

Kohli, rohit,  pant, bumrah missing ipl mayches will affect brand value big time

From BBC Cricket

 

England's fifth Test against India at Old Trafford has been cancelled after a number of the tourists' backroom staff tested positive for Covid-19.

India were unable to field a team because they fear further cases spreading through their squad.

 

India have forfeited the match, meaning the series is drawn 2-2.

 

Yeh kya chewtiyapa hai..............:wall::mad:

 

All due to Kohli plus that Bewda

 

 

Andar ki bast hain, few players too could be infected. This is just a face-saver. 
Shastri & Kohli will have to do lots of explaining.

 

ECB can’t be blamed for Indian team not adhering to BCCI regulations. They were clearly told not to go to crowded events, that too without masks. 
 

Even staying in hotels Bio Bubble can be maintained. Teams which travel and maintain Bio Bubble don’t rent Villas to stay. They all stay in hotels. That’s how it works. Anybody saying that just staying in hotel Bio Bubble can’t be maintained are actually talking from their backsides…

 Not under covid rules. This agreement was signed long ago. Covid cannot lead to a team’s disqualification. India had thr option to come back from lanka but dravid insisted playing. SL board will remain eternally grateful for that gesture

India is not a pussy side. Why would India be scared of England. Kohli one thing he never will is back out of a challenge. He is a warrior in that regard.

BC, these idiots wanted rest after IPL so we couldn't go earlier to England to play WTC final. Now they want to rest before IPL so all this talk of being fearful of Covid. Why don't those who want to play just quit playing for India and just play IPL. I am sure there will be many who would just want to represent India even if it means no IPL.

 

All these talks of being aggressive from the captain and when its time to show your strength and resolve they chicken out. Total bullshit

Bcci and ex Indian Stalwart should make a mockery of this.ECB officials have a different protocol in written but do the opposite .WTF is this casual approach !

Among players? Was euro cancelled?

Players got infected even before tournaments. Here players are negative but they can turn positive during the game then it will be cancelled anyway if that happens.

You are back again.

 

People are dying in England right now, UK is reporting 40000+ cases, why are you even following this series? Hypocrisy much?
