Jamaica’s Chris Gayle is set to link up with his Kings Eleven Punjab teammates in the UAE on time, after returning two negative COVID-19 tests.
There had been reports that he attended the birthday celebrations of sprinter Usain Bolt, who has since tested positive and is currently in home isolation in Kingston last Friday.
Gayle, the highest run scorer in T/20’s, posted the news on Instagram Stories, with videos of his swab testing, prior to his flight to the UAE.
Upon arrival in the UAE, he will be tested at the airport, followed by a six day quarantine, with further testing on days 1, 3 and 5.
Only once those are cleared, can team members start training in the bio secure bubble.
