After all of the anticipation that had constructed across the fifth and ultimate Test match of the India-England Test sequence, followers internationally have been disillusioned after the match was cancelled as a consequence of Covid issues within the Indian camp. While the rationale was sufficient by itself and shouldn’t have invited any additional scrutiny, the English followers notorious for his or her senseless jabber focused IPL, BCCI and Indian gamers.Given the sequence was performed in the midst of a pandemic and, with the Indian contingent travelling with their households, comprising little youngsters, one would have anticipated English followers to courteously settle for the choice of the Indian group. However, the unruly English followers have been extra considering mudslinging accusations that Indian gamers needed to hen out and that BCCI needed to guard its prized child i.e IPL.Former England captain Michael Vaughan claimed India had England cricket down earlier than rapidly monkey balancing his assertion with the best way England let South Africa Cricket down.India have let English Cricket down !!! But England did let South African Cricket down !!!— Michael Vaughan (@MichaelVaughan) September 10, 2021The English board and its haphazardness have been on full show when it put out an announcement concerning the cancellation of the match. The assertion learn that India had “regrettably forfeited” the match which meant the sequence would have ended 2-2. However, earlier than the controversy may spiral, ECB rapidly corrected its mistake and omitted the phrase. Look inwards ECB – Akash ChopraFormer Indian opener and commentator Akash Chopra shared a video on his YouTube channel and identified that the ECB ought to mirror on their very own previous actions earlier than pointing fingers.He elaborated, “You (ECB) have to look slightly inwards. You came back from South Africa, there was no positive case in your contingent. Sri Lanka – you went back again. You went back to your home from other nations in a jiffy. So, why such sudden desensitization towards COVID?” “My take is that these are extraordinary circumstances. You have to and should consider it a COVID cancellation, for the simple reason that you might not have COVID now but it is found after three or four days, or your neighbor gets it, then you are not in the right frame of mind. It is not that COVID has not happened and you are thinking about ways to get out of the series.”Even England legend Kevin Pietersen echoed Chopra’s statements and tweeted, “England left the tour of SA for Covid scares & cost CSA plenty, so don’t go pointing fingers!England left the tour of SA for Covid scares & cost CSA plenty, so don’t go pointing fingers! 👀— Kevin Pietersen🦏 (@KP24) September 10, 2021ECB should agree to the rescheduling—Sunil GavaskarMeanwhile, Sunil Gavaskar gave the example of the 26/11 terror attacks and remarked that England went back after the attacks but returned later under the captaincy of Pietersen and finished the series. He added that BCCI has offered ECB to complete the series at a later date and that should be the relationship between the two boards.However, so far, the response from the English board has been not so encouraging, to say the least as high ranking officials have remarked that if and when the match happens, it will be a standalone game.Gavaskar said, “Yes, I think that the decision of rescheduling the cancelled Manchester Test would be the correct thing to do. We should never forget what the England team did in 2008 after the horrific attack, the 26/11 terrorist attacks in Mumbai. The English team came back. They were perfectly entitled to say, ‘we don’t feel safe, so We will not come back’. Never forget that Kevin Pietersen led the team, and he was the main man. If KP had said no and refused then that would have been the end of the matter.”Euro 2020 and the uncouth English followersThis is just not the primary time that English followers have been referred to as out for his or her behaviour.
