England cricket team chief Ashley Giles has forecast a significant delay to the home series against the West Indies in June should the coronavirus relent sufficiently to allow the three Tests to go ahead. The county championship, comprising four-day matches, was due to start on Sunday but English cricket is shut down until at least May 28, with the expectation of further postponements.
England are meant to play a three-Test series against the West Indies in June, with the opening match at The Oval starting on June 4.
But England team director Giles told reporters in a conference call on Thursday: โThe deadline of May 28 still stands but itโs looking less and less likely that weโre going to be out there in June.
