The series between India and South Africa starting from December 17 is under the shadow of Corona's new variant Omicron. Now the Chief Medical Officer of Cricket Cricket South Africa (CSA) Dr. Shuaib Manjra has given a big statement regarding this. He said that even if the spread of the virus increases rapidly, it will not trouble the Indian team.
He said that there have been cases in the Johannesburg region, where India has to play its first two Tests, but their protocols have been put in place and the Indian cricket team will not face any problem.
Symptoms of Omicron
Speaking to The Indian Express, Manjra said, “South Africa is at the beginning of the fourth wave, but the symptoms are generally mild in the cases that have been reported. Gauteng states that the risk of hospitalization in Johannesburg is particularly high among those who have not been vaccinated. 75 percent of the cases indicate this.
No player positive so far
Manjra further said that no player has come positive so far in the ongoing tour between South Africa and India A, which is a good thing. The bio bubble created by the South Africa board regarding the Indian tour is completely safe.
No guests will come to the hotel
He further said that for the first two Tests, the hotel will be completely open to the players, with no outside guests staying inside. Players will have the opportunity to roam the outer spaces of the hotel and will not be confined to the rooms.
Apart from the players, there will be more people in the hotel in Cape Town, but the players' area will be blocked and they will be isolated from the rest. The hotel staff will quarantine themselves in the hotel five days before the start of the match. The bus driver will also be quarantined in the hotel.
Let us tell you, a source in BCCI has said that we are considering extending the series by a week.
