However, the ICC expressed confidence in staging the WTC last in a bio-secure atmosphere.
“The ECB and other members have demonstrated how we can stage international cricket safely in the middle of a pandemic and we are confident that we can continue to do that and that the WTC Final will go ahead as planned in June in the UK,” mentioned the ICC in a press release.
“We are currently discussing with the UK Government the impact of countries being on the ?red list’,” it added.
The Indian girls’s cricket workforce can be scheduled to tour UK in June. The males’s workforce can be to play 5 Tests in England beginning August 4.
India has reported 2,73,810 new constructive circumstances within the final 24 hours, the very best single-day surge, taking the nation’s COVID-19 caseload previous the 1.5 crore mark.
