India cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin, who is quarantined in Mumbai before the team leaves for a 104-day UK trip on June 2, Instagrammed this picture with daughters Aadhya and Akhira on Thursday and captioned it: "Quarantine cuddles. #quarantinediaries." He recently revealed how he had sleepless nights inside the IPL bio-bubble when most of his family members were suffering from COVID-19 and said he had to leave the tournament midway to help his close ones fight the deadly virus.

"I couldn't sleep for almost eight to nine days. Since I couldn't sleep, it was really stressful for me. I was playing matches without getting any sleep. And since I found it really taxing, I had to quit IPL and go home midway," PTI quoted Ashwin as saying on his YouTube channel.

Talking about the ongoing 14-day quarantine in Mumbai, Ashwin provided an idea of Indian team's life in the protected environment. "It's really difficult, guys. It might look from the outside that we are staying at a luxurious five-star hotel. Like I said earlier, it is not seven days, but 14-day quarantine," he said.
