Covid-19 hits cricket, Pakistan vs West Indies ODI series postponed

Pakistan's plan to revive cricket in the country is hit by a Covid roadblock this time as the three-match ODI series against West Indies has been postponed.

Pakistan's plan to revive cricket in the country is hit by a&nbsp;Covid roadblock this time as the three-match ODI series against West Indies has been postponed due to rising positive cases in the visitors' camp.
The Pakistan Cricket Board and Cricket West Indies announced in a joint statement released on Thursday that the number of Covid-19 positive cases has grown to nine following the release of Wednesday's RT-PCR test results.
The joint statement stated that the ODI series, which is part of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Super League, has been postponed and rescheduled for early June 2022, taking into account both the teams' welfare as well as restricted resources in the West Indies side.
West Indies team members who returned negative Covid results have departed from Pakistan after the completion of the third and final T20Is at Karachi.
While those who tested positive will complete their isolation in Karachi.

T20 World Cup 2021: West Indies, from favourites to being on the cusp of crashing out

With power hitters like no others and the tag of being the only team on the planet to win 2 World T20 titles, West Indies was once being regarded as the team to watch out for in the T20 World Cup 2021. But after just 2 games, the defending champions&nbsp;could be heading for an early exit.
BITE: KIERON&nbsp;POLLARD, Captain, West Indies (1st bite from 1st match)
'It's disappointing to start, you know, a tournament like that being defending champions.'
2 back-to-back losses to England and South Africa have exposed the&nbsp;Windies' poor batting ability, which is still dependent on the old workhorses. While 42-year-old Chris Gayle and 36-year-old&nbsp;Lendl Simmons&nbsp;have&nbsp;failed to deliver with the bat, 38-year-old Dwayne Bravo has fallen flat as the all-rounder. Windies&nbsp;also have 37-year-old Ravi&nbsp;Rampaul&nbsp;in their ranks, who has managed to take just 1 wicket in 2 games so far.&nbsp;Out of the 19 squad members this time around, 10 were also a part of the 2016 World Cup-winning team 5 years ago. Interestingly, the average age of the West Indies squad is by far&nbsp;the highest among all teams in the competition.&nbsp;
While the Chennai Super Kings might have proved that age is just a number in cricket, but a world tournament is a different ball game altogether. Their batters have let the team down in both matches so far and it makes one believe that several former Windies' stars including&nbsp;Curtly Ambrose being critical of this team was right. While Gayle has scored just 25 runs at run a ball in 2 games so far, Simmons had a strike rate of below 50 in both innings.
BITE: KIERON&nbsp;POLLARD, Captain, West Indies
"Well, we just have to do what it takes. You know, we have to dig deeper, you know, as a team, we have to dig deeper as a batting unit. And we have to come out and, you know, hold our heads up and, you know, try to play a good game of cricket. We have to get wins on the board now."
Windies now take on Bangladesh on Friday and will need a miracle to stand a chance to qualify for the semi-finals. Even if they manage to get 3 wins under their belt, the&nbsp;Windies&nbsp;would have to hope other results to go their way in order to progress.

South Africa captain Temba Bavuma said he and his fellow players were "surprised" by&nbsp;Quinton de Kock's refusal to take a knee and his subsequent withdrawal from their T20 World Cup 2021 game vs the West Indies.
BITE: TEMBA&nbsp;BAVUMA,&nbsp;Captain, South Africa
"I think obviously as a team, we were surprised and taken aback by the news. Obviously Quinton is a big player for the team, not just with the bat but from a senior point of view, from an experience point of view. Not having that at my disposal, as a captain, was obviously something I wasn't looking forward to. In saying that, Quinton is an adult. He is a man in his own shoes. We respect his decision, we respect his convictions, and I know he will be standing behind the decision he has taken."
On the other hand, West Indies skipper Kieron&nbsp;Pollard, who also plays with de Kock&nbsp;for the Mumbai&nbsp;Indians had a contrary view.&nbsp;
BITE: KIERON POLLARD, Captain, West Indies
"each and every one has their own opinions on it, but, as I've always said, once you're educated and you understand, we will understand you doing it. But, I think, education sort of is the key. And we don't want anyone doing it for us in solitude, or to feel sorry for us. So, I'm not aware of which individual you speak about but I guess then afterwards someone will, you know, increase my knowledge capacity and what actually transpired."
de Kock is expected to release a statement explaining his stance in the next few days.

T20 World Cup 2021: Quinton de Kock pulls out of game vs Windies, refuses to take a knee

After Cricket South Africa directed The Proteas to collectively take a knee, Quinton de Kock pulled out of the game against the West Indies due to his stand against the BLM Movement. CSA to decide on next steps.

As South Africa took the field against West Indies in their T20 World Cup 2021 game on Tuesday, there was no sign of Quinton de Kock. While Cricket South Africa claimed that the wicketkpper-batsman made himself unavailable for selection for a crucial game due to personal reasons, they later clarified that he pulled out due to his stand against the Black Lives Matter Movement.
After the southpaw refrained from taking the knee in his side's 1st Game of the T20 World Cup, Cricket South Africa had directed The Proteas&nbsp;to collectively take a knee. Surprisingly, de Kock&nbsp;pulled out after that. There have been instances in the past as well when he refused&nbsp;to take a knee. CSA&nbsp;in a statement said that the board will await a further report by the team management&nbsp;before deciding on the next steps. It also stated that all players are expected to follow this directive and take a knee against racism in the remaining games of the World Cup.
Former West Indies captain Darren Sammy said during commentary that&nbsp;Sometimes he doesn't understand why is it so difficult to support this movement if one understands what it stands for.
Interestingly, all Indian players also took a knee in their World Cup opening game against Pakistan on Sunday.

After fugitive businessman Mehul Choksi was traced and captured in Dominica, the island nation is suddenly all over the headlines. Is it the same as the Dominican Republic? Where is Dominica located? Google searches for Dominica are surging, so we'll give you a quick Geography lesson. 
Dominica, an island country, is located in the eastern Caribbean Sea. It is a part of the Windward Islands chain in the Lesser Antilles group of islands. The Lesser Antilles, together with the Greater Antilles and the Lucayan Archipelago, make up the West Indies. Dominica lies between the French islands of Guadeloupe and Marie-Galante to the north and Martinique to the south.
Dominica and the Dominican Republic sound confusingly alike. And although both are located in the Caribbean Sea, they&rsquo;re not the same. The Dominican Republic, also a country of the West Indies, occupies the eastern two-thirds of Hispaniola, the second biggest island in the Greater Antilles chain. The national capital is Santo Domingo.
Antigua and Barbuda, Choksi&rsquo;s home for the last couple of years, is also an island nation in the West Indies. It lies in the Caribbean Sea and consists of two major islands Antigua and Barbuda - and other smaller ones.
Wanted in the Rs 13,500-crore Punjab National Bank fraud case, Choksi allegedly entered Dominica &lsquo;illegally&rsquo; and has now been detained. He had been staying in Antigua and Barbuda since January 2018 and recently disappeared from there. Choksi is facing two cases in Antigua and Barbuda, one on his extradition to India and the other on the revocation of his citizenship.
