Fewer matches but more tests

Despite having fewer matches in the second phase, there will be more Covid Tests. Before the players reached the UAE, more than 750 staff were tested in 14 hotels in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. According to the new Covid protocol, all players and officials will be tested every third day. There will be 30 thousand corona tests during the tournament. In addition, nurses and other medical staff have been accommodated in the same 14 hotels in which the players are located until the end of the league for safe bio-bubbles.

 

Dr. Shajir Ghaffar, CEO, VPS Healthcare said, “Our team is ready to provide medical facilities during the IPL. We are trying our best to provide a safe environment throughout the tournament.

Hopefully, this will help UAE emerge as a safe global sporting destination.

This will be the first time after 2019 that league matches will be played in the presence of fans. However, the organizers of the league did not say what percentage of fans would get entry into the stadium. But according to sources, 50 percent of fans of the stadium's capacity will be given entry.
