JACK LEACH had the winter from hell with injury and illness – and looking back he wonders whether he also contracted coronavirus without being aware at the time.
Now the England spinner is hoping for a late blast of summer cricket and the chance to put his Test career back on course.
Living in a bio-secure bubble for a few weeks while England play the West Indies will be fine for Leach – even the protocol where players eat at separate single tables in what feels like a school exam room.
“It’s great to start training again and play some cricket and my aim is to bring the best of myself to the England set-up,” he said.
Leach wants to look forward – and things can only get better after a nightmare period amid the winter tours of New Zealand, South Africa and Sri Lanka.
He is already having to cope with Crohn’s disease, an inflammatory bowel problem and has suffered a series of setbacks.
