The last two matches of the three-match T20 series between India and Sri Lanka will take place today (July 28) and tomorrow (July 29). The second T20 International of the series was to be played on July 27, but was postponed a day after Krunal Pandya found positive in the Kovid-19 test. This was done again by Pandya, an eight-player Kovid-19 test with Krunal’s close links, all of which came back negative. The big question in the midst of all this is, are these eight cricketers available for selection in the second and third T20 matches? Is it the right decision to continue this series after Krunal Corona is positive? Akash Chopra had some important things to say about this in his ‘skydive’ program.
Akash Chopra believes the inclusion of these eight players in the team will increase the risk of coronavirus transmission. According to Akash, three days ago Pandya Kovid could be positive and if this series continues, more players in the future could become corona positive. Akash Chopra, ‘It is news so far that the remaining two matches of the series will be played, but this may raise questions about the safety of the players. It should be remembered that after a few days most players are found to be corona positive, they will return from here, meeting their families.

Apart from this, Akash Chopra has criticized the soft biological bubble for the Test series between India and England. During the Test series between India and England, players live in a soft biological bubble, playing cricket in the audience. Akash believes the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) should think about this.
