England and Australia cricketers, who are part of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020, joined their respective franchises ahead of the tournament. The players had to take proper safety measures before boarding the flight to the UAE.
They all were wearing mandatory Personal protective equipment (PPE) kit while traveling, and now the players are getting used to the new norms.

Rajasthan Royals (RR) captain Steve Smith posed wearing the PPE kit after joining the franchise. "A different way to arrive at this year's IPL but excited to be here with the @rajasthanroyals," he wrote.
England captain and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) member, Eoin Morgan compared himself with the famous character Walter White from TV series Breaking Bad. After wearing the PPE kit, he felt like an audition for a new season of Breaking Bad.
David Warner and Aaron Finch also posed for pictures in the PPE kit and posted a picture on Instagram. While Warner will lead Sunrisers Hyderabad this season, Finch is set to be a part of Royal Challengers Bangalore.
The group of players from the Australia-England limited-overs series are travelling from one bio-bubble to another, so their quarantine period is reduced to 36 hours, except for those who landed in Abu Dhabi. They will need to undergo a 6-day quarantine period.
