Chennai Super Kings batsman Ruturaj Gaekwad, who tested positive for Covid-19 last month, will undergo two fresh tests and could miss the first few games of the IPL.

Thirteen members of the CSK contingent tested positive for the virus and two of them were players — Gaekwad and Deepak Chahar. Chahar has recovered and resumed training after clearing his mandatory two tests.

“Ruturaj will undergo two tests as per protocol. If he tests negative, he will be back in the team hotel bubble. The other staff members have tested negative and are now back in bubble,” CSK CEO KS Viswanthan said on Sunday.
