Jos Buttler urges England team mates to speak up on potential bubble burnout

The Hindu  

Living in claustrophobic bio-secure bubbles can take its toll on mental health and players should not feel under any pressure to speak up if they cannot cope during England's tour of South Africa, vice-captain Jos Buttler has said. England's players have spent the most time in bubbles, starting with four series at home while many also participated in the two-months-long Indian Premier League in the United Arab Emirates. READ: England's limited overs captain Eoin Morgan had said last month that players can withdraw from tours if they feel playing in bio-secure bubbles amid the pandemic will take a toll on their mental health. England will play six limited-overs matches - three Twenty20 games followed by three one-day internationals - in South Africa between Nov. 27 and Dec. 9.
