- Worcester v Harlequins and Irish v Northampton called off
- Premiership Rugby says there are no ‘circuit breaker’ plans
The Premiership’s Covid-19 crisis escalated on Wednesday with two more matches cancelled amid a record number of positive tests across the league.
Harlequins’ trip to Worcester and London Irish’s match against Northampton were both called off, taking the total to four matches cancelled in just over a week, but Premiership Rugby insisted there are no plans to introduce a “circuit breaker” and put the season on hold.
