David Warner met his family after weeks. The former Sunrisers Hyderabad skipper took to his Instagram to share the videos of reunion with his daughters.

After days of hasty travel and hard quarantine, the Australian players – who took part in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 – are finally back home. A group of 38 Australians left for the Maldives on May 6 after the tournament was indefinitely suspended on May 4, due to the rising cases of Covid-19 in its bio-bubble. They had to wait for about 10 days before the Australian government lifted the temporary ban on its citizens travelling from India.

“It's always tough being stuck somewhere, and knowing that we're able to get home was a relief, and now we're out of quarantine, I can't wait to get home and see my family,” he said.

The 14th edition of IPL, which had completed around half its fixtures, will be played to a conclusion in the United Arab Emirates in September and October, the BCCI said in a release on Saturday. The decision was taken at a Special General Meeting (SGM) held virtually, where members unanimously agreed to resume IPL.
