Along with human existence, all other activities including sporting events have been severely affected by the outbreak of COVID-19. The coronavirus outbreak has taken over 1 lakh lives in the world and all sporting events have either been called off or postponed in the wake of the pandemic. Major cricket boards have also incurred severe losses due to absence of any cricketing activity.

The world has been forced to go under lockdown and individuals have been suggested to stay isolated. Amid such stern situation, PCB had announced that it will be conducting fitness test on players virtually amid the lockdown. During their quarantine time, cricketers are resorting to indoor training to keep themselves at the time of the pandemic.

Recently, Pakistan head coach and chief selector Misbah-ul-Haq and trainer Yasir Malik had also sent out a letter to remind players that they should remain fit in such a crucial situation.

“With all the limitations and lack of resources at the moment, we have chalked out this new fitness battery with everyone given an equal opportunity,”

“We have to make sure that we are giving our hundred per cent. You have been informed well before time to make sure you are mentally and physically ready for it. All the tests will be carried out on video link by your team’s trainers,” the message from Misbah and Malik read.

However, online fitness test hasn’t fared well for Pakistan’s Sohaib Maqsood suffered an accident and injured himself in the process. Shoaib stated that the glass of the table fell down and cut his knee during the online fitness test.
