- 30-man squad could be selected to face Windies and Pakistan
- ‘The public are desperate for live sport’ says England captain
Joe Root says England are ready to go into isolation to save this summer’s Test series against the West Indies and Pakistan. That could mean the Test captain also missing the birth of his second child but he is ready to make that sacrifice for a return to live international cricket.
With sport tentatively discussing a way back, England cricketers learned this week that a squad of up to 30 players could be chosen for a run of six Tests at the Ageas Bowl and Old Trafford from 8 July.
