Positive Covid in the South Africa camp apparently

 

[Driver8]

Postponed. SA player tested positive.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Boooo.

Was looking forward to this.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

 

[vegster]

Bugger.

 

[Daffy Duck]

Oh, sod it.
Was really looking forward to watching a bit more cricket.
Loved the T20 games and nothing nicer than watching the game being played somewhere nice and sunny while it's cold and grim over here.

Glad the game is being replayed - but given teams are in ‘bubbles’ you have to wonder how someone has managed to get infected? Wonder if there has been a breach of the protocols?

 

[dazzer6666]

ARSE. That's my excuse to not go Christmas shopping gone.

 

[Is it PotG?]

The series opener will take place in Paarl from 08:00 on Sunday.

Delayed further, hotel staff test positive.

 

[Deadly Danson]

Match abandoned. FFS.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Tour over, surely

 

[n1 gull]

Called off because hotel staff ffs this is getting bloody ridiculous. They are fit young men who have tested negative what do they think will happen?

 

[Arkwright]

Just bring the team back home. This just highlights what an excellent job the ECB did with the home series in the summer.

It must be hard on the players being away from families at Christmas and the possibility of having to self isolate in a hotel room.

Just come back home.
