DC’s Mitchell Marsh tests positive for Covid

Delhi Capitals’ Australian all-rounder Mitchell Marsh will be out of action for at least 10 days as a day of intense drama saw him return positive for COVID-19 in a second RT-PCR test along with two support staff, taking the total number of cases to four.

It couldn’t be independently confirmed if Marsh has been hospitalised or not. The other two who have tested positive are team doctor Abhijit Salvi and the team masseur.

The RT-PCR reports of all other players have returned negative. A few days back, team physio Patrick Farhart had tested positive for the virus.

Mitchell Marsh’s RTPCR first report has come negative. However the second RT-PCR report turned out to be positive. All other playing members have turned negative in RT-PCR tests. There is no threat to Wednesday’s match between DC and PBKS,” a senior BCCI official told PTI on Monday.
