Team India on Thursday (June 3) landed in England ahead of the World Test Championship (WTC) final against New Zealand and the five-match Test series against the hosts.
India’s men’s and women’s cricket teams boarded the chartered plane to the UK on Wednesday. Both squads will now undergo quarantine and are expected to be allowed to train during the isolation period.
Since the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) now allows the family members of the players to accompany them, the wives and children of players have also arrived in the UK.
