While the New Zealand team are already in the United Kingdom, having also finished their intra-squad warm-up game, the International Cricket Council (ICC) confirmed that their opposition, India, would arrive on June 3. While India wouldn’t have a match practise before the tournament, like New Zealand, they would be put under managed isolation before they can resume normal training sessions. 

“Prior to travelling, the party will have spent 14 days in a bio-secure environment in India during which regular testing will have taken place. Upon landing, they will proceed directly to the on-site hotel at the Hampshire Bowl where they will be tested again before commencing a period of managed isolation,” it added.

“Regular tests will be conducted during the period of isolation. Players’ activity will be allowed in a gradually increasing manner after each round of negative testing, moving from exercise in isolation to small group and then larger squad activity, whilst always remaining within the bio-secure venue.”
