The silence from Kohli “man of the people and proud Indian” is deafening
I hope they are isolating in a hotel for 2 weeks

On the actual cricket, most of the England players did alright especially Moeen, Bairstow and Curran. Morgan on the other hand was very poor. Hopefully they get home alright
it said they are in their first flight befor transit and have booked their spots in UK government hotels for 10 days
I’m sure you’re not allowed from India mind like
tin hat on but I’m losing faith in Morgan
his decisions, tactics and general outlook for me has been shite for a while now
you need to keep ahead of the train and I’m not sure he is
that Indian series was bizarre, he didn’t try anything, he didn’t give Mo one game. And his obsession with Tom Curran is strange
I don’t like his attitude towards Hales either, for example Ed smith wanted to select him, but Morgan refused, according to George dobell
he’s the captain, no more, pick your best t20 side and pick a captain from it

His form as well isn’t great. Guess it depends if he justifies his place in the team on his captaincy alone, I think we have more talented white ball players. The obsession with Tom Curran was bizarre when I look at some of the players that could have played in front of him
Sure he's the only person who's suffering. In the Maldives.
Edit - or is he still in India?
He’s left I think.

Are they in quarantine in Maldives or a holiday as such?
After 2 weeks can they then fly home and just do the standard quarantine? The replies on twitter are either we love you or we hate you, no middle ground.

Aye, Australia
what does this even mean?
what the fuck was he doing about it? sitting in a 5 star air conditoned hotel getting paid a fortune and taking him valuable resources to do so
the bloke seems like an arsehole, and he is also an absolutely shite commentator
He knew the risks before going, be funny as fuck if they turned him down at the border
What does it mean?
Allow me to translate
“I’m angry that I’m being ignored. Despite being on the beach. I may not have mentioned the plight of other Australians in the last year, or mentioned the impact of covid on India, but it didn’t impact me then. And now it does, so I’m using all the cards I can. I’m a thick, selfish fucker”
hope that helps

Knowing our luck if they accept the whole thing would be washed out.
Wouldn't mind going to a game if durham hosted one, but doesn't seem that they have put themselves forward
Horrible idea. Why would we want to host any foreign tournament just as our own domestic season is coming to a hectic climax? This suggests to me just how little the domestic four day competition means to some counties. True, it probably appeals to a different group of enthusiasts but it will inevitably diminish interest in the county game already under siege from the Hundred, IPL etc. All 18 counties will each have at least six four day fixtures during the period from mid August to end of September and there is also a test series v India due to include two matches during early September not to mention T20 Blast finals day on the 18th and the five-day Bob Willis final starting 28th September. And the Cricket World Cup potentially starts in India in early October!
I wonder whether the IPL contracted players have been consulted?
I know that they are all desperate for funds, but, with Covid sweeping tragically through India, this is a crazy time to propose an unnecessary increase in travel from that country. With scientists trying desperately to keep us safe by finding modified vaccines to address the various mutations of the virus, why make their job harder and risk our own safety by potentially inviting more variants over here to wreck yet another Christmas?
