The COVID-19 test has been conducted and the team is waiting for the results. The reports are expected to come on Thursday. "This morning, Mohammad Hafeez went to a golf course, which is adjacent to the team hotel and part of the bio-secure bubble. During the golf round, he was photographed with a member of the public, which he subsequently posted on his social media account," the PCB informed.
