The organizers of CPL 2020 finally signed the agreement with the local government after giving undertaking to take all precautionary measures and follow guidelines set by T&T government. According to the understanding –
– All the participants – squads and team management of the six franchises, the organisers and the rest of the crews – will need to self-isolate for two weeks before they board their flights, and for two weeks upon arrival in T&T.
– All the participants will be tested for Covid-19 upon arrival followed by two more tests – seven days and 14 days after their arrival.
– All six teams will stay in the same hotel in Trinidad.
– Each team will be broken up into mini clusters. In case anyone from one of the clusters tests positive before or during the tournament, that cluster will have to self-isolate.
– No other guests will be allowed to stay at the hotel hosting the teams.
