According to a report in The Sunday Telegraph, cricketer-turned-commentator Michael Slater and star opener David Warner got into a late night physical altercation after a heated argument at Maldives' Taj Coral Resort, where the pair are quarantined.
Australian support staff, commentators and cricketers, who were involved in the 14th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) are currently quarantining in Maldives as the Australian government has imposed a ban on incoming flights from India. After completing their quarantine period in Maldives, the Aussie support staff and players will fly back to their respective homes.
Due to surge in COVID-19 cases in the IPL 2021 bio-bubble, BCCI had suspended the cash-rich tournament and arranged chartered flights for the overseas staff members and cricketers to quarantine in Maldives.
