Indian Premier League: Ex Black Cap holed up in Bangalore hotel

From Morning Report, 7:47 am on 6 May 2021

A former Black Cap-turned Indian Premier League commentator says he's holed up in a hotel in Bangalore, waiting to see how he can get out of the country.

The competition has been indefinitely postponed, after several players in the IPL contracted the virus.

Eighteen New Zealand cricketers, support staff or officials also remain stuck, with some heading to the UK and some looking to come back home.

Former Black Cap and now IPL commentator, Danny Morrison - who is currently in Bangalore - told sports editor Stephen Hewson he's happy just sitting tight for the time being.
