England’s Ali tests positive

England allrounder Moeen Ali is self-isolating for 10 days after testing positive for the coronavirus, the national team said yesterday, a day after the squad arrived in Sri Lanka for a two-test tour. Ali is due out of isolation on January 13, the day before the first test starts in Galle. The England and Wales Cricket Board said Ali tested positive after taking a test on arrival at the airport in Hambantota on Sunday. Pace bowler Chris Woakes has been deemed as a possible close contact and will observe a period of self-isolation and further testing. The touring party will undergo testing for a second time today and is set to train for the first time tomorrow. The second test starts on January 22 and is also in Galle.
