Despite worries about the effects of concussion, Stuart Broad wishes to play in the Ashes.
“The Ashes series will be happening for sure,” claims the ECB, who are “extremely confident” in their ability to make that happen.
They are going to discuss the future tour of Pakistan, as well.
Stuart Broad, England’s leading bowler, asserts that he would definitely travel to Australia in winter to participate in the Ashes series, despite the fact that he is worried about regulations with regards to the coronavirus.
Despite uncertainty regarding recent rules restricting visitors from traveling to Australia because of the coronavirus, England bowler Stuart Broad remains certain that he will participate in the Ashes tour this winter. England and Wales Cricket Board officials are “quite sure” that the Ashes will be able to be played as scheduled, as England imposes new strict border controls, similar to Australia’s, on the players and fans. As a result of an aversion to Covid quarantine and bubble settings, which would make travel long and boring, most would prefer to travel when it was more fun to do so before the epidemic. The ECB will also make a decision on whether to move forward with the October 13 and 14 T20 doubleheaders, which are slated to take place in Rawalpindi.
England’s first planned international visit to Pakistan in six years is now on shaky ground following a “security alert” from New Zealand, which caused their tour to be abandoned without any prior warning.
Broad is hoping to join the squad for the upcoming series in Australia in December, where he will try to “work diligently” to participate.
“Players can’t sign up to something unless they know what they are signing up for,” Broad wrote in the Mail on Sunday, and he says that a squad is just weeks away from being selected.
“When asked if I’d be thrilled to board a plane for Australia in November, my answer is a resounding yes. I am doing everything I can to make it happen. I don’t think we’ll have to put it off “he went on to say
“I can say without a doubt that an England team is going on the tour. However, if a teammate tells me they have no intention of being present, I would understand “he declared
“A player’s prospects of selection in the future will not be hurt,” Broad said, summarising Ashley Giles, England’s director of cricket, who added, “Everyone has to make their own decision.”
