Delhi Capitals fast bowler Anrich Nortje has tested positive for COVID-19.

Nortje had already missed DC's franchise opening match on April 10 against Chennai Super Kings due to mandatory quarantine of seven days.

The South Africa pacer came in as a replacement for Chris Woakes.

Nortje was one of the outstanding performers for the Delhi-based franchise last year.

He took 22 wickets from 16 matches. He also broke the record of the fastest delivery in the history of IPL, with a speed of 156.22 km/h during a match against Rajasthan Royals in 2019.
