The second T20 cricket match between India and Sri Lanka was postponed to a day after the spin-all-rounder Krunal Pandya was found to be corona-positive on Tuesday, and Krunal was forced out of the series for seven days. Under Sri Lanka’s healthcare protocol, Krunal will not be able to return home with the rest of India on July 30. After completing the required quarantine they will have to wait for a negative RT-PCR. The third and final T20 match will be held on Thursday.

This is going to be a three-match series, because in some cases, India will have enough players with a negative RT-PCR and the team may be dropped. BCCI Secretary Jay Shah said in a statement: “The second T20 match between India and Sri Lanka on July 27 has now been postponed. Now it will be on July 28th. He said, ‘Rapid antigen testing was conducted before Tuesday morning’s match, in which Krunal’s report was positive. The medical team identified eight members who were in close contact.

Let us tell you that India has brought in a 20 member team and four standby net bowlers on this tour. All matches will be held at R Premadasa Stadium. There will now be two consecutive games on Wednesday and Thursday. India won the first T20 by 38 runs. How incomprehensible Krunal has been living in a tight biological bubble for the past one month is incomprehensible. This could also affect the departures of Prithvi Shah and Suryakumar Yadav, who will be heading into the Test series against England next month.
