By IANS News December 19, 2021 • 15:40 PM View: 1888

The Australian Big Bash League (BBL) continues to be in the grip of Covid-19 scare after Sydney Thunder's 29-year-old wicketkeeper-batter Sam Whiteman was ruled out of Sunday's game against Brisbane Heat at The Gabba as a precautionary measure while the club investigates whether he was a potential close contact with someone who had tested positive for COVID.

The opener was replaced by 21-year-old Lachlan Hearne in the squad. Brisbane Heat won the toss and elected to bowl, with Sydney Thunder notching up 81/1 in 10 overs of the 20-over innings.
