Amid the surge in COVID-19 cases across India, several states announced strict restrictions in an attempt to control the spread of the pandemic. In the last few weeks, several celebrities, as well as cricket players such as Sachin Tendulkkar, Irfan Pathan, and many others tested positive for COVID-19. Now, it is being reported that cricketer MS Dhoni’s parents have contracted Coronavirus.

After having played IPL 2020 in UAE, the legendary captain did not enter the field for any competitive matches and spent some quality time with his family. He directly stepped onto the field in March when CSK organised a pre-season training camp.
