English Players Deserve Sympathy; Not The Flak They Are Getting: Mike Hussey
Former Australian cricketer Michael Hussey has expressed his sympathies with the England players, saying they have endured a lot of bio-bubble life in the last one-and-a-half years and played far too many Test matches for them to be wary of bio-secure environments.
Former England captain Nasser Hussain too had expressed sympathy with England cricketers saying that his country's cricketers were facing flak for no reason. "Right now, it feels as if England's Test players are getting a lot of flak, particularly from Australia, about their attitude to quarantining at the Ashes. And that doesn't sit comfortably with me. England has played 18 Test matches since the start of the pandemic in March 2020. That's five more than anyone else -- and 14 more than Australia, whose four Tests all came at home against India last winter," Hussain wrote in his column for Daily Mail on October 3.
