Fast bowler Natarajan tests positive for COVID-19 in IPL

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Sunrisers Hyderabad fast bowler Thangarasu Natarajan has tested positive for COVID-19.

The Indian Premier League said in a statement on Wednesday that the left-arm paceman has “isolated himself from the rest of the squad.”

Six other members of the team, including allrounder Vijay Shankar, were identified as close contacts of Natarajan and were also placed in isolation.

The IPL said the entire Hyderabad contingent went through testing on Wednesday morning and their results are negative.

“As a result, tonight’s game between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Delhi Capitals will go ahead at the Dubai International Stadium,” the IPL said.
