The members of the squad will get tested in their cities and the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has advised them to exercise caution for the next three days after testing.

The players and staff will assemble in Islamabad on September 8 for the ODI series against the Black Caps and after one day of quarantine at a hotel, they will be allowed to start training at the Pindi Cricket Stadium.
