However, there is no official confirmation from the BCCI yet on whether Sundar is infected. The ODI series between India and South Africa is starting from January 19.
The 22-year-old spinner was supposed to leave for Cape Town along with the rest of the players on Wednesday, but now he may be stopped from going to South Africa. According to the report of Cricbuzz, Sundar had come to Corona positive a few days back. He was in Bengaluru when he was found infected and was not associated with the rest of the players in Mumbai.
