England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) revealed the list names of the men's national players on Friday (May 29) who resumed training as a part of the back-to-training group. The cricketing body announced fifty-five players have been picked to return to training to prepare for behind-closed-doors cricket, subject to UK Government clearance. As the coronavirus outbreak has brought all sports activities to a halt, players are practising social distancing and self-isolation during the pandemic. The World Health Organisation (WHO) and the governments all around are urging people to stay at home. Back on Thursday (May 28), ECB further delayed the restart of professional domestic cricket season until August 1 saying that no domestic cricket will be played amid COVID-19 scares.
