English Players Needed A Bit Of Surety To Continue With Ashes: ACA Chief

By IANS News October 06, 2021 • 16:45 PM View: 1439

Australian Cricketers Association (ACA) chief executive Todd Greenberg said on Wednesday that the England players "needed some level of surety" regarding the Covid-19 protocols prevailing Down Under, and once they got those assurances their skipper Joe Root committed himself to the Ashes tour in December this year.

The suspense over whether the England cricket team would travel to Australia for the five-match Ashes series was all but laid to rest earlier on Wednesday, with reports in UK's Telegraph newspaper suggesting that Root has confirmed he would travel Down Under for the 11-week-long tour.
