Star English Spinner Takes Break Ahead Of India-England Series! Know Why News24 –

England’s famous spinner Sophie Ecclestone has taken a short break from the sport. The bowler made her first appearance on 3 July 2016 against Pakistan in a T20 match. The legendary spinner managed to get 297 wickets in 177 matches across all 3 formats. Sophie has stopped racing temporarily due to an injury and this is why she is resting to give herself time to heal fully.

Why Did Sophie Take A Break?

England’s national team head coach, Charlotte Edwards states that Sophie is dealing with a quad injury at this time. Based on these circumstances, she wants to spend more time on her recovery. ICC’s number 1 bowler recently was given some rest during the series against West Indies. At that time, the spinner was recovering from having a knee injury.

Sophie’s coach revealed to BBC that she has felt some discomfort in her body for a few weeks now. That is why she has opted to retire from cricket. Marvel Fans have not been told yet how long she will remain off-screen. Yet we are prepared to help her and we respect the choice she has made. Sophie’s fitness must improve before facing India, and she should be able to compete in the team. What really matters at this moment is that she steps back and improves her health.
