After IPL&nbsp;had to be suspended midway due to Covid-19 breach, BCCI&nbsp;is that burnt&nbsp;child who dreads the fire. The Indian board has told it's players to consider themselves out of the England tour if they test positive upon landing in Mumbai.

According to fresh reports, BCCI's decision to host 2nd phase of the IPL&nbsp;in cities with no alternate T20-specific practice facilities&nbsp;may have caused the breach in Covid protocols.
An official in the know of things told IANS that there's a belief within the BCCI&nbsp;and state associations that the decision to take the second phase to Delhi and Ahmedabad was wrong. The alternate facilities meant for practice in these&nbsp;2 states were open to exposure to Covid-19.
While in Delhi, teams like CSK used the Roshanara Club grounds for practice, those in Ahmedabad,&nbsp;were forced to use Gujarat College ground.&nbsp;Both venues are in congested or old parts of the city.

Hardik&nbsp;Pandya's&nbsp;exclusion from India's Test squad for the World Test Championship final and the England tour raised many eyebrows. Once considered one of the best all-rounders&nbsp;with the red ball, Pandya&nbsp;is now not even in the team that is playing the final of the inaugural World Test Championship. According to a report in the Times of India, Pandya's&nbsp;inability to bowl in the longest format pushed him out of the team. Interestingly, captain Virat&nbsp;Kohli&nbsp;spoke a lot about managing Pandya's&nbsp;workload during the home series vs England but the allrounder&nbsp;only bowled a few overs in the T20 series &amp; once during the ODIs. The report suggests that the selectors are no longer considering Pandya&nbsp;for Test cricket now and will focus on him as a pure batter for white-ball cricket. Pandya&nbsp;underwent back surgery in 2019 and since then has changed his action to relieve some stress but the report suggests that his shoulder has now flared up and the cricketer is finding it tough to manage the workload.&nbsp;

While Bumrah&nbsp;took off for his wedding, Shami&nbsp;and Jadeja&nbsp;missed the last home series vs England due to injuries. There are no major changes to the squad as most of the heroes of the Australia tour also find themselves with a ticket to England. KL Rahul and Wriddhiman&nbsp;Saha&nbsp;were also named in the squad subject to fitness clearance. The World Test Championship final will start from 18th June in Southampton followed by a 5-match Test series vs England as the long tour will stretch to September.&nbsp;Team India is expected to travel to England by a charter flight towards the end of this month.
