There will come a point when players will struggle with living in bio-secure bubbles during cricket competitions amid the Covid-19 pandemic, says former South Africa captain Faf du Plessis.

"We understand that this is a very tough season and a tough challenge for a lot of people out there, but if it's back-to-back-to-back bubble life, things would become a big challenge," du Plessis said during a virtual news conference on Saturday.
