LAHORE: Peshawar Zalmi players Ben Cutting, Usman Qadir, and Sohail Khan have tested positive for COVID-19 just two days before their playoff against Islamabad United in the ongoing seventh edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL), Geo News reported, citing sources.

According to sources, the total toll of coronavirus positive members for the Zalmis has climbed to four. Other than the three players, support staff member and former cricketer Hashim Amla has also tested positive for COVID-19.
