Notably, the match between the Delhi Capitals and the Punjab Kings was originally scheduled to take place at Pune’s Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, but it was moved to Brabourne Stadium on Tuesday to prevent any further spread of the virus due to an undetected case on a long-distance bus journey in a closed environment.
