Saha and Krishna had contracted the deadly virus during the now-suspended IPL 2021.
Both of them had contracted the deadly virus during the IPL 2021, which was indefinitely postponed earlier this month due to COVID-19 cases inside bio-bubbles.
Alongside Saha and Krishna, Team India’s Mumbai-based players also joined the England-bound squad's bio-bubble at the Grand Hyatt near the international airport.

The Indian contingent will reportedly depart for UK on June 2. During the much-awaited tour, Virat Kohli and company will play the World Test Championship (WTC) final against New Zealand (June 18-22) followed by five-Test series against the hosts (August 4-September 14).
“Wriddhiman and Prasidh Krishna joined the bubble two days back after recovering fully from COVID-19. Mumbaikars like Virat, Rohit and coach Shastri have all now joined the bubble,” PTI quoted a BCCI source as saying.
While the approval for allowing the players' families is still awaited, BCCI is hopeful that it would be done soon.
"We can't have our players being away from their families for three months and that too in a bubble. That's never great for mental health," the source said.
The Indian board is still negotiating soft quarantine with ECB and UK government authorities, which will enable the visiting players to train upon landing in England.
