The Australian government recently suspended all direct flights from India until May 15. Cricket Australia (CA) are currently in talks with their government to bring home the two cricketers.

A CA spokesperson talking to Cricbuzz said:

Adam Zampa and Kane Richardson could be stuck in India until May 15 following the travel ban due to the rise in COVID cases in India. CA, though, are looking to make arrangements for a flight from Mumbai to Doha, a route which Rajasthan Royals’ Andrew Tye took to get back to Australia earlier.

Chris Lynn suggests CA to arrange charter flight to bring Australian players home after IPL 2021

Another Australian who is currently in India is MI batsman Chris Lynn. The Aussie star is hopeful that CA and the Australian government will work out a way to get them safely back home after the completion of IPL 2021. Lynn also suggested that CA could look to arrange a private flight to get the Australian players home.

Adding further, the opening batsman said:

Lynn also showed confidence in the bio-security protocol that IPL teams have to follow and added that he has no plans of leaving Mumbai Indians for the time being.

With restlessness rising among foreign players, IPL COO Hemang Amin recently assured that BCCI would do everything possible to ensure the safe return of players to their home countries after the completion of the tournament.
