Cricket South Africa has made some tweaks to the bio-bubble norms as the Indian team is slated to tour the African nation later this month. Anyone testing positive for Covid-19 will be isolated within the hotel room if clinically stable.
"Considering that all those within the ecosystem will be vaccinated, the positive case will isolate within the hotel room if clinically stable," CSA's chief medical officer Shuaib Manjra told ESPNcricinfo. "Contacts will continue playing and training with non-medical interventions strictly observed, and tested daily."
"Whilst at the end of the third wave we considered moving from a strict BSE to a managed environment, the Omicron variant and high levels of community transmission have forced a strict BSE," Manjra stated.
The fixtures had come under dark clouds after the detection of the Omicron variant in the country but the two boards decided to rejig the schedule and the T20I series was scrapped.
India are scheduled to play three Tests and as many ODIs during the tour of South Africa. The Test series will begin on December 26 in Centurion while the ODIs commence on January 19, 2022 in Paarl.
