Australian cricketer David Warner has shared a heartbreaking message from his three young girls begging their dad to come home.
The Test batsman is among a number of Australian cricketers who face an uncertain future in coronavirus-ravaged India as the Indian Premier League is suspended and multiple players test positive to Covid-19 - with another 9000 Aussies trapped in the virus-ravaged nation.
Even more of Australia's top cricketers in India were forced into isolation on Tuesday after a third IPL player tested positive for the virus.
The IPL has since announced the immediate indefinite suspension of the big-money tournament featuring many of the world's best players, acknowledging that if the seven-week competition were to continue it may put 'lives at stake'.
