Delhi Capitals spinner Axar Patel has tested positive for Covid-19 ahead of the start of their Indian Premier League campaign next week, the team said on Saturday.
Delhi, coached by Australian batting great Ricky Ponting, said the 27-year-old Axar had checked into the team hotel in Mumbai on Sunday with a negative report.
“His report from the second Covid test, came positive,” the 2020 IPL finalists said in a statement. “He is currently in isolation at a designated medical care facility.”
Left-arm spinner Axar, who made a successful test debut for India against England recently, was the second cricketer to Test positive before the IPL after Kolkata Knight Riders batsman Nitish Rana.
