Bairstow, Dawid Malan pull out of IPL, citing personal reasons
The Hindu
All players arriving in Dubai now have to do a six-day quarantine and that could be the reason behind Bairstow and Malan pulling out.
Sunrisers Hyderabad opener Jonny Bairstow and Punjab Kings batsman Dawid Malan have pulled out of the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) due to personal reasons. The England and India players were supposed to fly into UAE from Manchester together in a bubble to bubble transfer but COVID-19 cases in the visitors' camp forced IPL teams to make their own arrangements. The fifth Test between India and England was also postponed indefinitely after a junior physio tested positive for the virus ahead of the game.More Related News
