West Indies tour of England: Steven Finn hilariously responds to what he has missed during Southampton Test

Steven Finn hilariously responds: The English fast bowler seems to be missing the spectators as England take on West Indies at the Ageas Bowl.

The ongoing first Test of West Indies’ tour of England at the Ageas Bowl in Southampton has resumed cricket in times of the COVID-19 outbreak. Apart from the five rule changes by the ICC, the one which is the most visible the lack of spectators in the stadium.

While Australia and New Zealand had played an ODI under same circumstances at the SCG in March, this is the first time that a Test match is being played sans spectators.

The unusual thought of playing international cricket behind closed doors already invited opinions from the likes of Pakistan batsmen Imam-ul-Haq and Fawad Alam, former Australia batsman Matthew Hayden, all-rounder Glenn Maxwell, fast bowler Pat Cummins and batsmen Usman Khawaja and Matthew Wade, veteran India spinner Harbhajan Singh, veteran New Zealand batsman Ross Taylor and veteran England seamer James Anderson and batsman Ollie Pope.

BBC’s Test Match Special took on its Twitter account to ask followers with respect to what they are missing the most during the ongoing first Test between England and West Indies. England fast bowler Steven Finn didn’t shy away from posting a hilarious response on the matter.

How Twitterati reacted:

Finn, 31, had last played for England during the ODI series against South Africa in 2017. In 126 international appearances for England across formats, Finn has picked 254 wickets at an average of 29.05 and a strike rate of 41.1.
