BCCI is not in a rush to take a decision over India’s upcoming tour of South Africa after the emergence of a new, heavily mutated variant of Covid-19, named Omicron, spreading rapidly in the African nations. The India A team is currently in Bloemfontein for three unofficial Tests, of which one has been completed and the other two are likely to go ahead as per schedule, before the senior team flies to the nation on December 8.
