It should be noted that this is the second time Delhi Capitals are under Covid scanner. Last month, Mitchell Marsh and Tim Seifert tested positive besides a host of DC franchise members.
“We will investigate the matter and take appropriate action so that it doesn’t happen again. It damages the image of IPL. But like in the past, it is always difficult to determine the source of the outbreak. We are monitoring the situation,” the BCCI official told InsideSport.
