The
third
wave
of
coronavirus
is
fast
gripping
the
country
and
several
states
have
introduced
curbs,
including
weekend
lockdowns,
to
prevent
the
spread
of
infection.
India
will
host
West
Indies
for
six
white-ball
games
–
three
ODIs
and
as
many
T20Is
–
at
six
venues,
starting
with
the
first
50-over
match
at
Ahmedabad
on
February
6.
“Nothing
has
been
decided
as
of
now.
This
is
a
fluid
situation
and
we
are
keeping
an
eye
on
the
situation,
and
we
will
take
a
call
at
appropriate
time,”
a
senior
BCCI
official
told
PTI.
Apart
from
Ahmedabad,
the
other
venues
which
are
scheduled
to
host
the
matches
are
Jaipur
(February
9),
Kolkata
(February
12),
Cuttack
(February
15)
Visakhapatnam
(February
18)
and
Thiruvananthapuram
(February
20).
Given
the
current
COVID
situation
in
the
country,
the
Board
might
look
to
host
the
six
games
at
three
centres
to
avoid
too
much
travelling
as
it
might
make
the
players
vulnerable
to
infections.
The
West
Indies
team
is
scheduled
to
undergo
a
three-day
isolation
after
landing
in
Ahmedabad
on
February
1.
There
will
be
practice
sessions
on
February
4
and
5
before
the
action
begins
with
the
first
ODI
at
Motera
on
February
6.
The
BCCI
was
recently
forced
to
postpone
major
domestic
tournaments
including
Ranji
Trophy
and
the
Col
CK
Naidu
Trophy
due
to
a
surge
in
COVID-19
cases
across
the
country.
