Sydney,
The England cricket team, led by Joe Root, continues its tour of Australia with a five-match Ashes series. England lost the first 3 Tests and lost the series 0-3. England players have come under heavy criticism for batting badly. The 4th Test between the two teams starts tomorrow (Wednesday) in Sydney.
Meanwhile, Corona is threatening the England team. Seven people, already training assistants and their families, were trapped in the corona. Head coach Chris Silverwood, who was in contact with a family member affected by the corona, was isolated. It is now confirmed that he also has a corona with no symptoms. Thus Silverwood misses the 4th Test. The England Cricket Board has said he will remain in solitary confinement until the 8th with his family arriving in Melbourne. He is expected to join the team in the last Test.
The only assistant
Graham Thorpe, the current assistant coach on the coaching staff, will provide advice, including training for the 4th Test team. Former England captain Adam Hollich lives in Australia. The England Cricket Board had planned to invite him for coaching assistance. But he too was unable to come because he was in contact with a person affected by the corona.
A further setback for England in this situation is the confirmation of a corona infection to one of the team’s web training bowlers. Thus, the training of the England team was canceled yesterday. Corona infiltration has been a major headache for England, who have already been plagued by defeats.
In the Australian team …
Travis Head is the only middle order batsman in the Australian camp so far to be under a corona attack. Usman Khawaja is likely to replace him in the 4th Test.
Despite retaining the Ashes trophy, the Australian players are determined to win the series completely. In an interview with the team’s spinner Nathan Lyon yesterday, he said, ‘When I play for the Australian team, I never consider any match to be an unnecessary one. So the remaining two games against England are important to us. Not only that but it is subject to the World Test Championship. So we want to win the series 5-0. ‘
