The Australian government has banned the arrival of around 9,000 Australians stranded in India. These include current Australian players and former players serving as support staff and commentators of which Slater was one.

Slater lashed out at Aussie Prime Minister Scott Morrison for not allowing players to return home.

He then directed his ire to those questioning him for going to India for IPL despite the country reeling under Covid-19 pandemic.
