All the positive cases will now be moved to a quarantine facility within the isolation center set by the New Zealand government. Other members of the team will be tested a minimum of four times before being given the green signal, as per the New Zealand government regulations.
“Two of these six results have been deemed ‘historical’. Four have been confirmed as new,” NZC said in a statement.
The rest of the squad won’t be allowed to train or leave the facility for any matter. All the members have been requested to stay within their assigned rooms until advised otherwise.
The team members have also been given a ‘final warning’ by the New Zealand authorities after several members were seen breaching COVID-19 protocols.

Pakistan is scheduled to take on New Zealand in three T20Is and 2 Tests, starting from December 18, however, the latest incident might have put the whole tour in jeopardy.
