De Kock Questions Sustainability Of 'Unsettling' Bubble Life During Tours

By AFP News January 06, 2021 • 17:32 PM View: 3627

South African captain Quinton de Kock has questioned the sustainability of ‘bubble’ life in the age of Covid-19 as he contemplated an upcoming tour of Pakistan – another series in which players are likely to be confined to cricket grounds and their hotel rooms.

Speaking in a virtual press conference to review South Africa’s Test series win against Sri Lanka, De Kock elaborated on comments he made during the post-match presentation after the second Test on Tuesday when he said he had mixed feelings about the tour of Pakistan because of the frustrations of being in a bio-secure environment.
