The recently concluded Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 witnessed players from the Indian cricket team bring a temporary halt to their unity and camaraderie.

It all ends now with the Indian team reunited for the upcoming tour of Australia and gearing up for some intense sporting action in a post-COVID world. The players were seen wearing PPE kits with masks, which are a part of their kit and tailored to match their India kits, in pictures tweeted out by the official Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) account. "#TeamIndia is BACK! Let's embrace the new normal#AUSvIND," read the tweet.
