Seven more Pakistan cricketers, including Mohammed Hafeez and Wahab Riaz, selected for the tour of England have tested positive for Covid-19, taking the total to 10, the Pakistan Cricket Board revealed on Tuesday.
The seven who tested positive on Tuesday are Kashif Bhatti, Mohammad Hasnain, Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Rizwan and Imran Khan, along with Hafeez and Riaz. Shadab Khan, Haider Ali and Haris Rauf had returned positive tests on Monday.
“It is not a great situation to be in and what it shows is these are 10 fit and young athletes... If it can happen to players, it can happen to anyone,” PCB CEO Wasim Khan said.
