Every member of England's party touring Sri Lanka for a two-Test series has been given the all-clear after undertaking secondary COVID-19 tests, but the drama isn't yet over.
They were all forced to retest after all-rounder Moeen Ali was found to be positive during the party's first round of testing upon landing in Sri Lanka.
And although no one tested positive – including fast bowler Chris Woakes, who had shared a car with Ali to Heathrow Airport – every one of the tourists will be made to undergo a third test tomorrow.

Ali is isolating for 10 days and Woakes a week.
BBC Sport is also reporting Sri Lanka, who just lost both matches of their two-Test series against South Africa in South Africa, won't face a 10-day quarantine period when they return home.
Both matches of the two-Test series between Sri Lanka and England will be played at Galle, with the first set to begin on January 14 and the second on January 22.
