Former Australian wicket-keeper Brad Haddin has given the Indian cricket team a serve for their reported reluctance to play the fourth and final Test match in Brisbane.<\/a><\/p>\n

According to Cricbuzz<\/em>, fears over being pushed into a hard lockdown upon arrival in Queensland have resulted in India wanting to play the final two Tests at the same venue.<\/p>\n

The controversial SCG Test starts on Thursday with The Gabba set to host the final fixture from January 15.<\/p>\n

"If you look at it, we were quarantining for 14 days in Dubai before landing in Sydney and doing so for another 14 days," an Indian official told Cricbuzz<\/em>.<\/p>\n

"That means we were in a hard bubble for nearly a month before coming out.<\/p>\n

"What we don't want now is to quarantine again at the end of the tour."<\/p>\n

Everyone knows how powerful the Board of Control for Cricket in India is.<\/p>\n

But Haddin had no sympathy for the touring side – who currently have five players isolating because of a potential COVID-19 bubble breach.<\/a><\/p>\n

"These guys have been in a bubble for a long, long time and they might just start to be getting a little bit tired," Haddin said on Fox Cricket's BBL coverage.<\/p>\n

"But you can't move a Test match if a state doesn't have any virus, just because you're over the quarantine.<\/p>\n

"You came to Australia knowing exactly what was going to happen.<\/p>\n

"You knew there was quarantine restrictions, you knew this could happen.<\/p>\n

"Yes it has been a long time now, they've been in quarantine with IPL and now the Australian summer but it's the same for the Australian teams.<\/p>\n

\"Coronavirus:<\/p>\n

"We haven't heard them whinge, they've just got on with it.<\/p>\n

"So to me it just looks like they're trying not to play at The Gabba."<\/p>\n

Australia has an excellent record at The Gabba.<\/p>\n

Co-commentator Mark Waugh joked that Haddin might be in trouble with his other employers in the IPL.<\/p>\n

"Hadds has just lost his (assistant coach) contract with the Sunrisers Hyderabad after ripping into the Indians there."<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
