There has been a lot of speculation and backlash ever since Head Coach Ravi Shastri and multiple others in the Indian camp tested positive for COVID-19. As a result, India vs England final test match stands canceled in Manchester. The Indian squad has already reached UAE for the IPL camp preparations.
Amidst this, Salman Butt speaks about Ravi Shastri and his book launch that might have breached the secure bio-bubble. Shastri also said, “anything could have happened” to these rumors.
While speaking in favor of Shastri, Butt refuted the claims, saying: “Both the teams were existing inside a high-protection zone. As far as the rest of England is concerned, we saw that nobody was wearing a mask in the crowd. Everyone was seated next to each other without any social distancing. Everything is open there and on that front, he (Shastri) is right.”
If Ravi Shastri did step out, where were the concerned authorities? Why wasn’t he told that he can’t break the bubble? Some people are present to assure and maintain the bubble and they stop people from going out. They stop people from going too close to each other and make sure there is enough distance. Nothing of this sort was there,” commented Butt.
Questioning the security of the bio-bubble breach, Salman Butt extended his support to head coach Ravi Shastri,
