England cricketers are one of the few active teams right now, playing cricket in their backyard across formats. It began with the West Indies visiting the nation for a three-match Test series followed by Ireland for as many ODIs. At this moment, England and Pakistan are battling in a three-game Test series. England lead the three-match rubber by 1-0, winning the first clash in Manchester while also emerging victorious against the Caribbeans and Ireland.
Tabraiz Shamsi tweeted that watching cricket with his wife is perhaps the most entertaining thing. He wrote “She asks me about players like Ben Woakes, Chris Pollock and Joffa Archer to name a few”. While the actual names are Ben Stokes, Chris Woakes, and Jofra Archer all of whom have played in the English home season.
