Marnus Labuschagne expressed concern for his compatriots who are part of IPL 2021. The 26-year-old went on to add that not many Australian players feel unsafe in bio-bubbles, and hoped they get back home safely whenever they do.
Currently, around 30 Australians are part of IPL 2021 as players, coaches and commentators. Recently Chris Lynn suggested Cricket Australia should arrange for a charter flight to bring its players home after the conclusion of IPL 2021.

Marnus Labuschagne has played 16 T20 games in his career so far. He was part of BBL 10, joining the Brisbane Heat following the Australia-India Test series.
