"Unfortunate that we had to end up here early, but with COVID in place, things are very uncertain," Kohli told RCB's digital media platforms. 
"Anything can happen at any time. Hopefully, we're able to maintain a good, strong, and secure environment, and have a quality IPL.

“Anything can happen at anytime” will be my new signature. Kabhi bhi kuch bhi ho sakta hain. So prophetic!

Unfortunate Covid outbreak. Have umpteen times. No team will play a test match the next day whose support staff is isolated and 8-10 players are close contacts. This simple thing people fail to understand.

Does a player needs to get infected for a test match to be cancelled? Even if entire support staff got infected one by one it doesn't seems plausible reason for cancellation. 4th test was not cancelled as 3-4 days of test was already over and at that time physio with whom players work everyday post day ends or during match was not infected. He infected later in any case managing one or two days of a continued test without any staff is not big deal than playing entire 5 day test without physio and support staff and also in the fear of covid outbreak.

Nowhere except on ICF, people are making such a big deal of the last test being canceled. New threads are popping up daily discussing the same topic blaming BCCI and the Indian team. People here are more concerned about themselves not having anything to watch on TV than the players who just went through a 3 month long tour.

Rich idiot should be the last one to preach these things.

He didn't want to humiliate himself more. Rain was expected. Didn't want to get owned by Anderson again.

Two wrong facts in one post.

 

ICC website says "Match cancelled without a ball being bowled"

 

IPL will start from September 19th
