The next very day, the 5-time champions have got a significant boost that’ll improve their play-off qualification chances as Will Jacks joins their squad.
Will Jacks’ prolonged break
The English all-rounder was on a personal leave after 4 months of non-stop cricket. Jacks had featured in 4 Test matches, the Ashes, in Australia from December to January. Then he toured Sri Lanka for an ODI and T20I series. This was immediately followed by a month-long T20 World Cup. He was England’s most valuable player in the ICC tournament, where they came within touching distance of reaching the final.
