After Australia banned all flights from India following a deadly second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said on Tuesday that cricketers playing in the IPL would have to make their own plans to return home.

Due to a "major" increase in COVID-19 incidents, Australia has temporarily halted all direct passenger flights from India until May 15. 


After Chris Lynn, who plays for the Mumbai Indians, has requested to Cricket Australia to arrange a chartered flight for the players to return home after the IPL, Australian PM Scott Morrison gave a statement.

Australian PM Scott Morrison said, “They have travelled there privately. This wasn’t part of an Australian tour. They’re under their own resources and they’ll be using those resources too, I’m sure, to see them return to Australia in accordance with their own arrangements. He said “They have to make there“own arrangements” to return home”.

In the midst of the worsening health crisis, three Australian players — Andrew Tye, Kane Richardson, and Adam Zampa — have withdrawn from the league. Currently, India is recording over 3 lakh new cases per day and over 2,000 deaths per day.
