The state government reiterates its ‘very strict rules’ and restrictions on players’ family members
Melbourne — Cricket Australia’s hopes of staging the fifth Ashes Test in Perth appear in jeopardy, with the Western Australia state government reiterating its “very strict rules” on quarantine and restrictions on players’ family members.
“We’ve said to them they need to have 14 days of quarantine, and that has to apply to all of the broadcast staff, all the cricket staff. England’s players, who are preparing in southern Queensland for the December 8 series opener in Brisbane, negotiated successfully to have their families join them on tour to Australia, where borders remain effectively closed to non-residents.
“If we’re allowed to move interstate, I don’t see why the families who are part of our bubble aren’t able to move with us.”
