The corona epidemic has started looming over Phase-2 of the Indian Premier League (IPL-2021). 4 hours 30 minutes before the match against Delhi Capitals, news has come that Hyderabad fast bowler T. Natarajan has become Corona positive. However, the BCCI has said that the match will be held on a pre-determined schedule. Apart from Hyderabad all-rounder Vijay Shankar, five coaching staff have been sent to isolation after Natarajan tested positive.
In May, the season had to be postponed after several players and support staff tested positive. After this, the board had decided to conduct phase-2 of the league in the UAE in September-October.
