England is out of T20 World Cup after losing to West Indies by 6 wickets
The 9th season of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup is currently being played in UAE. The tournament has got its four finalists. So England, which had won three consecutive matches in the league stage of the tournament, had to be eliminated after losing the last match of the group stage against West Indies by 6 wickets.
This has been a very disappointing moment for the England women’s cricket team. Big statements are being given by former cricketers on this defeat of England. So now the name of former England cricketer Alex Hartley has also been added to these names. Hartley says England need to be a little more fit.
Alex Hartley gave a big statement
Let us tell you that after England’s exit from the Women’s T20 World Cup, Alex Hartley while talking on BBC Test Match Special said – It is really disappointing. A lot of questions will be asked and some of them will be on fitness, which is right.
England need to be more fit. Australia has got 15 or 16 athletes, but they are real athletes. You look at our team, I will not take names, but if you see them you will know.
We’ve lost tough games for so long. When England come under pressure, and in particular, when Sophie Ecclestone doesn’t slow things down and take wickets, everyone gets nervous. She can’t do this again and again.
There are going to be questions about captain Heather Knight, management, fitness and what is going on in this England team. And now we need to change things. When you haven’t won a World Cup for so long, things need to change.
