CoVid virus landing on your glove or ball probably won’t live long enough to infect you.  British researchers inoculated a wide range of  equipment including a cricket glove, soccer ball, golf ball, tennis ball, and even a riding saddle with varying doses of CoVid19.

When the surfaces of these items were sequentially sampled for live virus, the data showed a rapid decline on cricket gloves as well as on  tennis, golf, and some cricket balls.  The virus hung around longer on soccer balls, rugby balls, and horse saddles.

This data is encouraging but assume any sports equipment in active play to be potentially contaminated.  Don’t touch your eyes, nose, or mouth,
