Six Pakistan players test positive for COVID-19 in New Zealand

(FASTNEWS | COLOMBO) –  Six members of the Pakistan cricket team have tested positive for COVID-19 while in managed isolation in Christchurch, New Zealand Cricket said on Thursday.

All six have been moved into quarantine and the team’s exemption to train while in isolation revoked, NZC added.

Two of these six results have been deemed “historical”, while four have been confirmed as new.

New Zealand’s health ministry said all 53 members of the travelling party, including players and staff, were tested on arrival on November 24 and the positive results are from those tests.
