Sophie Ecclestone: England Spinner claims to have “moved” from the refusal to interview

The refusal of Ecclestone to make an interview was before the first T20, at that point England was already 6-0 in the series based on the multi-transformed points.

Clare Connor, CEO of the English women’s cricket, has since described the episode as “an unfortunate accident that will no longer happen”. Ecclestone and Hartley have not talked about since then.

When asked why he refused the interview, Ecclestone reiterated his desire to look forward.

“Everyone has gone on now, as I said,” said the left arm spinner.

“There is not much more to say about that story.

“Alex and I went on and we both learned from that. I am enthusiastic about the summer to start.”

The former Spinner Hartley, who is currently working with Multan Sultans in the Super League of Pakistan, said to the BBC Sport: “Sophie and I respect each other and we have absolutely come forward. We will continue to move forward”.

The repercussions of the defeat of England in Australia led to plunder Jon Lewis and Heather Knight as a coach and captain.

Lewis was replaced by the legendary former captain Charlotte Edwards, who said he will do it Make players “responsible” for fitness.

After England has been eliminated from the group stage of the T20 World Cup in October, the former Spinner Hartley said that some players “lowered the team” in terms of physical fitness.

“Everyone has their opinion and everyone has the right to this,” said Ecclestone.

“Not many people see how hard we work hard on closed doors such as cricket players and people. People can have their opinion.

“Now it’s a new era and we are all excited to start working hard and we hope to get some trophies this year.”
