Steve Harmison Reveals He Had A Chat With Ben Stokes Following The Questioning Of Abu Dhabi Camp
Steve Harmison: Former England fast-bowler Steve Harmison revealed that he had a conversation with current Test skipper Ben Stokes after he questioned the side’s preparatory camp in Abu Dhabi ahead of the five-match Test tour of India.
Last month, speaking on TalkSport’s Following On podcast, Harmison was left irritated by England’s plans of an 11-day camp in Abu Dhabi and arriving in India three days before the Test series opener in Hyderabad on January 25, which led to Stokes taking to social media to express displeasure over the criticism.
“I had a good chat with Ben about it. It was two people talking who have a hell of a lot of respect for each other because I played with him and saw him growing up. And I love the way he is going about things as captain. It was old mates talking openly and in an honest fashion and it was fine. I’ve no problem with that. Ben came back to me and I like that.”
