Former England Cricketer Kevin Petersen has taken a dig at the England and Wales Cricket Board for apparently wishing their countrymen Jofra Archer and Ben Stokes best of luck for their encounter against Kings XI Punjab.
The two Englishmen Jofra Archer and Ben Stokes are currently plying their trade in the Indian Premier League for the Rajasthan Royals franchise. As we all are aware the English cricket board is not really in favour of its players participating in the IPL as it collides with their first-class domestic competition. The ECB over the years has been reluctant and have been more often than not discouraging their players from participating in the cash-rich league.
