Zim cricket records COVID-19 cases

ZIMBABWE Cricket (ZC) is confident the 2020/21 domestic cricket season will progress smoothly despite recording five COVID-19 cases on the eve of the Logan Cup competition that got underway in Harare on Wednesday.

The positive cases were confirmed after up to 100 players and support staff members were tested for the coronavirus during a screening exercise conducted before they could enter into a bio-secure bubble set up for the first-class tournament.

All the five infected individuals are not showing any symptoms and have since been isolated, with the ZC medical team constantly monitoring them.
