“I’ve tested positive for COVID-19 today with mild symptoms. Post the confirmation, I have quarantined myself at home and taking all the necessary precautions and medication required. I would request those who came in contact with me to get themselves tested at the earliest,” Yusuf wrote in his Twitter post.

Irfan Pathan, Yusuf’s younger brother, wished him a speedy recovery from the infection.

“Get well soon Lala. I’m sure you will be fit and fine soon,” tweeted Irfan.

Left-arm spinner Iqbal Abdulla also wished Yusuf on Twitter. He wrote: “Get well soon tiger.”
