"Kane Richardson and Adam Zampa's return from India is under a cloud after the Australian government paused passenger flights from India for the next three weeks due to that country's overwhelming surge of COVID-19 cases.
Cricket Australia was in discussions with the federal government after Tuesday's announcement, with officials from the governing body also in regular contact with Australians involved in the Indian Premier League."

"Scott Morrison has told Australian cricketers playing in the Indian Premier League they will not be able to return home ahead of other Australians currently stranded in the country, after Western Australia’s premier, Mark McGowan, suggested it was “galling” the cricketers were even allowed to fly to the subcontinent during the pandemic."

"Kane Richardson and Adam Zampa have arrived back in Australia after the pair narrowly avoided being stuck in India following the federal government's flight ban.
Royal Challengers Bangalore this week confirmed the pair had withdrawn from the Indian Premier League in order to head home, the news coming less than 24 hours before Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced a pause on all direct flights from India due to a devastating surge in COVID-19 cases and deaths.
There had been concerns that Richardson and Zampa may not be able to make it home given the ban, but they landed in Melbourne on Thursday afternoon having caught a connecting flight out of Doha.
They will now spend the next two weeks in hotel quarantine."

Funny isn't it. We're not even game to leave WA for our annual holiday east because we know a lockdown can be called at the drop of hat and these blokes take off to India?!?
I can't stand McClown, but I agree with his statement on this 100%
They should put some of their squillions together, charter a jet and fly to Christmas Island for a few weeks.
