Former England opener Mark Butcher was unhappy on the prospect of England Test players turning down the opportunity to go for the Ashes in Australia at the end of the year. The five-match Test series between the two teams is scheduled to begin on December 8 and finish on January 18.

"I'm slightly furious about the idea that players are thinking about not going on an Ashes tour because they're worried about the quarantine requirements for their wives and kids," said Butcher on an episode of Wisden Cricket Weekly Podcast on Wednesday.
