On Tuesday, the PCB had stated that total 10 cricketers and a support staff had tested positive for the virus and also suggested that the players were on self-isolation. But with the latest development, questions are being raised over the validity of the tests.
As per the schedule, the Pakistan cricketers are to leave for England on June 28 in a chartered flight. Even though players tested positive, the PCB CEO, Wasim Khan, said that the tour was on as per schedule. Hafeez and Wahab Riaz are among the 10 England-bound Pakistan players, who tested positive for COVID-19 on Tuesday.
