"Did someone say (bio-secure) bubble? We've been mastering the art at #EdenGardens since our 2012 opening clash!", KKR wrote. "PS. If you remember this, you've been a #KKR fan for a long time," they added. 

IPL franchises are in UAE currently and the members of every franchise is in isolation before beginning the training securely. They will also have to undergo three COVID-19 tests on days 1, 3, and 6 of their quarantine.
