The match will be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad from 7:30 pm. Varun and Sandeep have been separated from the team and the medical team is in constant contact with both of them and is keeping track of their health. Aside from the news, Australian fast bowler Pat Cummins, who is part of the KKR team, is also not well and self-isolated.
