'Stop Treating Players In Namby-Pamby Way': Geoffrey Boycott Slams England's Rotation Policy

By IANS News March 10, 2021 • 15:20 PM View: 2743

England players should be docked money from their salaries if they want to go home on a break from national duty, said former captain Geoffrey Boycott. He said that England's players would never take a break from playing in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and so they should not be allowed to do the same while playing for the national team.

Boycott's comments come amidst widespread criticism aimed at England's rotation policy during their four-match Test series against India, which they lost 3-1. The defeat also ruled them out of contention for a spot in the final of the World Test Championship.
