Subramaniam Badrinath tested covid positive after Sachin Tendulkar and Yusuf Pathan.



Former Indian cricketer Subramaniam Badrinath on Sunday had tested positive for coronavirus and is in managed home isolation. He is the third former Indian cricketer to be tested positive for coronavirus after Sachin Tendulkar and Yusuf Pathan.



The 40-years old cricketer recently took part in the Road Safety World Series in Raipur along with other veterans of the game.&nbsp;



?I have been taking all the necessary precautions and have been getting tested regularly. However, I have tested positive for COVID-19 and have some mild symptoms,? Badrinath said in his Twitter handle.



?I will follow all protocols and will be isolating myself at home and will take needful action as per advise (advice) from my physician,? said Badrinath who announced retirement from all forms of cricket in 2018.



The Road Safety World Series has come into controversy as the participant cricketers are one by one getting infected with the virus. Netizens have started calling it Road ?Unsafety? World Series for the same reason.



The series was held in purpose to raise awareness about road safety and the road etiquettes in India. Besides India, South Africa Legends, England Legends, West Indies Legends, Bangladesh Legends and Sri Lanka legends have also participated in the series.



According to the doctors, all three cricketers have mild symptoms of the virus and are in control.



The cases tally has again started to rise after the second wave. As of now, the country is recording over 60,000 cases in the last 24 hours and Maharashtra alone has over 30,000 cases.



The Maharashtra government has announced a night curfew in the major cities of the state from 07 PM to 06 AM in the morning.



According to BCCI, the IPL games will go as per the schedule even if the states are imposing night curfews in the cities. The IPL matches will begin 07:30 PM onwards from 09th April 2021.

Vivo IPL 2021: RCB opener Devdutt Padikkal tested covid positive ahead of IPL 2021.



Vivo IPL 2021: Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) star opener Devdutt Padikkal has been tested covid positive on Sunday. With him getting infected with the virus, the tally of covid positive IPL players reached 3.



According to RCB management, Padikkal has been separated from the rest of the squad and is sent into isolation.



Earlier, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) batsman Nitish Rana and Delhi Capitals (DC) all-rounder Axar Patel were also tested positive for covid-19. However, the former batsman has been tested negative and is back with the KKR squad for the practice sessions.



Now Devdutt Padikkal is expected to miss at least two games for RCB. Virat Kohli and Co. are scheduled to play the tournament opener against Mumbai Indians (MI) on April 09th in Chennai.



Padikkal?s absence will certainly hit RCB back. The cricketer was in supreme form in the last season. In the delayed season of IPL, Padikkal scored 473 runs in 15 IPL games at an average of 31.53.



In the recent Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and Vijay Hazare Trophy, Devdutt Padikkal was in a scintillating form smacking bowlers all over the park. In the former tournament, he amassed 218 runs at 43.60 average while in the latter 50-overs tournament he piled up a massive 737 runs at an average of 147.40.



Virat Kohli will have to open the innings with another opener in the first couple of games, till Padikkal is not with the team. This could lead to team imbalance however they have ample options available to play at that position.



The ideal choice would be to opt for an Indian cricketer and Mohammad Azharuddeen will be the first choice. Azharuddeen had a fine domestic tour this year. He came into the limelight after scoring a century in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy playing for Kerala.



Kiwi cricketer Finn Allen and Rajat Patidar are two more options for Virat Kohli. It will be interesting to watch whom Kohli and RCB management chose as the first choice.

T20 WORLD CUP 2022: ENGLAND vs. AUSTRIA Corona Knocked in the World Cup, and Australia's Trouble Increased. T20 World Cup defending champions Australia have suffered a major setback ahead of the crucial match against England. First, Adam Zampa was corona infected before the match against Sri Lanka. Now wicket-keeper batsman Matthew Wade has also become infected before the match against England. His corona report has also come back positive.



In this situation, Australia may have to face difficulties in the next match as the team does not have any backup wicket-keeper batsman. However, the ICC has permitted corona-infected players to compete as well, but they must first receive a clean bill of health from the team's medical staff. If Wade isn't playing, then David Warner, Aaron Finch, or Glenn Maxwell will play as a wicketkeeper. At the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Australia and England will play one another on October 28.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/10/eng-vs-aus-1024x682.jpg" alt="ENGLAND vs. AUSTRIA" class="wp-image-96461" /><figcaption>ENGLAND vs. AUSTRIA</figcaption></figure>



As a substitute for Mathew Wade, Josh Inglis was selected, but Inglis was out of the team due to injury. All-rounder Cameron Green was included in the squad in his place. At present, the big news has come out of the net session in Australia. All-rounder Maxwell is seen with wicketkeeping gloves in the net session. Andre Borovitch, assistant coach, was seen practicing with him.



<h2>ENGLAND vs. AUSTRIA Corona Latest Report</h2>



The good news for the Australian team is that Adam Zampa has returned as a negative. His corona report came back negative twice, and he has rejoined the team and has also started bowling practice. The match between England and Australia on Friday is being considered a virtual knockout.



The Australian team is currently fifth and England is third in the points table of Group 1. Both England and Australia have played two matches each and have lost one match each. England was defeated by Ireland, and Australia was defeated by New Zealand.



New Zealand is currently at the top of Group 1 and Sri Lanka is in second place. Tomorrow's match will be very crucial for both teams, If either team loses, then that team will almost be out of the World Cup.



AUSTRALIA|SQUAD: Aaron Finch (c), Matthew Wade (wk), David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Tim David, Pat Cummins, Ashton Agar, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Kane Richardson, Adam Zampa, Cameron Green, Steven Smith
