England cricketer Dom Sibley has mentioned the curtailed Sri Lanka tour was a ”get up name” and it motivated him to lose round 12kg in the course of the coronavirus induced lockdown so as to be extra agile within the cricket area. In March, England had postponed the Test series against Sri Lanka after discussions with the Sri Lanka Cricket board because of the coronavirus pandemic worsening globally.
The English workforce was scheduled to play the two-match of the World Test Championship (WTC) towards Sri Lanka, commencing from March 19.
Sibley, the England opening batsman mentioned that his skilled teammates like Joe Root, Ben Stokes, and Jos Buttler in the course of the coaching made him ”self aware” about his weight.
“In Sri Lanka, for the primary time in my profession, I felt somewhat bit self-conscious about my physique and my weight. I bear in mind being in Sri Lanka, particularly with that warmth, and seeing a couple of of the lads operating after an enormous session and that was an eye fixed opener for me. Ben Stokes is a little bit of a freak in relation to his coaching,” ESPNcricinfo quoted Sibley as saying.
“Truly it was seeing him, Root and Buttler operating after a session in Colombo. I bear in mind being completely spent in order that was an actual eye opener. I feel it was overdue having that wake-up name and a superb lesson for me, no matter whether or not it results in runs,” he added.
