During the pandemic, era cricketers have to stay in bio-bubble to stay protected. Due to bubble fatigue, many players opt out of the series, which is completely acceptable. However, having a great depth squad helps the team to make quick replacements.
While talking about India’s bench strength and the current situation in cricket, Brett Lee stated:
“The bench strength is crucial for a team to do well and India’s performance in Australia bears testimony to that. Teams are not of just 11 players anymore. There are some 16-17 of them and it is about having others who are good enough to stand up at the world level at any given time.
“Also, with travelling in bubbles, there will be players who get extended rests and others who get fatigued, but that is how the times are,” he added.Â
