IPL 2021: Kolkata Knight Riders Begin Quarantine For Training Camp

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) are set to start their training camp for the 2021 Indian Premier League (IPL) for which players and staff have started arriving for their mandatory seven-day quarantine. Th

The testing will continue as per BCCI's guidelines throughout the tournament, similar to how it was conducted last season in the UAE.

For those players involved in the upcoming India-England ODI series - Eoin Morgan, Shubman Gill, Kuldeep Yadav, and Prasidh Krishna - the BCCI has made a provision allowing them a bubble-to-bubble transfer without having to serve a quarantine again.

"Players coming directly from the Bubble created for India vs England series may be permitted to join the franchise squad without serving the mandatory quarantine period, provided they satisfy the given criteria," read the guidelines.

The IPL is set to begin on April 9 with the final scheduled to be played on May 30. The designated venues for the tournament are Kolkata, Chennai, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Delhi, and Bengaluru. None of the teams will be playing in their home venues and KKR will be playing their group stage matches in Chennai, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Delhi, and Bengaluru.
