But in the meantime, please take care of yourselves, take care of others and let’s ride this out together. All the best.”

He further added how the week was a tough one for the cricket fraternity as all activities got cancelled in Australia. “Look there’s no doubt it’s been a big week for our cricket community, a really big time for all Australians.” But he also mentioned that the decisions were certainly made to safeguard a broader interest. “Some decisions have been made in the best interests of our country and our most vulnerable people. Those decisions certainly weren’t made lightly and they have been made based on the best possible advice from our government and from health experts.”
