Shortly after the Pakistan Cricket Board confirmed that a further seven players and a player support personnel from a total of 35 have tested positive for Covid-19, the team's young pacer Shaheen Afridi called them warriors, praying for their speedy recovery.
The PCB had organised these 35 tests in Karachi, Lahore and Peshawar on Monday. Three players had tested positive for Covid-19 on Monday.
"Prayers are for my Pakistan Team friends &amp; seniors who have tested positive for COVID-19. The good thing is that all had no symptoms and some have also developed the antibodies. You are all warriors. Get well soon, in sha Allah," Afridi said in a tweet.
