Jesse Kriel shared an exclusive video with Breakfast with Martin Bester showing the players at the airport, who were set to return home after the Japanese League cancelled the rest of the season. 

According to Kriel, he hasn't slept for 38 hours.

Most of the group returned home but a small number of them, including Fred Zeilinga and Jan de Klerk, are waiting it out in the hopes that they can get on a flight around lunchtime today.
