Another set of Covid-PCR tests will be conducted on the 9th of isolation on Thursday, following which the players who continue to return negative will be allowed to start training while in isolation, subjected to approval by the New Zealand Health Ministry.

And, post the tests conducted on day 12 of managed isolation, all those who clear the 14-day health check will be allowed to leave the quarantine.

The management and the players are fully supportive of the process and keen to get back on to the field as soon as they are compliant with the New Zealand Government Rules.” Pakistan Cricket Board said in a statement.
