Marsh tested positive after quick testing following the Capitals\u2019 match against the Royal Challengers Bangalore on Saturday, raising doubts about the tournament\u2019s possibility. Marsh battled to bat with consistency, and the Capitals lost by 16 runs.<\/p>\n
Marsh is said to have undergone two rounds of RT-PCR testing after that. The first resulted in a negative, but the second resulted in a positive.<\/p>\n
On Monday, all of the Capitals\u2019 players were taken to a fresh round of RT-PCR tests. The IPL will next decide if the Capitals can go to Pune on April 20 to play the Punjab Kings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
