PCB has arranged three separate hotels for the six franchises, and in case of a COVID-19 outbreak within a team, two franchises in the same hotel will be quarantined, while the rest can continue to play. This decision has been made per the recommendations of Restrata, the company in charge of the bio-secure bubble.

The players and staff members will be required to undergo four COVID-19 tests before traveling to the UAE. Upon their arrival, they will undergo a further two COVID-19 tests and will be allowed to train after returning negative results. Tests will continue for the touring party after every three days.
