Captain K L Rahul, Mayank Agarwal, Mohammad Shami and Dawid Malan are the Punjab players who are in Manchester.
Before COVID struck the Indian team, the plan was a bubble to bubble transfer with players of both teams taking a chartered flight to UAE.
“Chartered flight is not a possibility anymore. We are trying to get their tickets done for a commercial flight tomorrow. When they land, they will do six-day quarantine like the rest of the players,” CSK CEO Kasi Viswanathan told PTI.
Punjab Kings CEO Satish Menon said: “In all likelihood, our players will fly out from Manchester tomorrow.”
Indian players have been in their rooms in Manchester since junior physio Yogesh Parmar tested positive on Thursday.
