Cricket activities have been came to standstill for long time due to enforced coronavirus lockdown across the globe. But now, since the governments have hinted to east the lockdown, the biggest question is how everything can be resumed or restarted.

I’ll be pretty comfortable
In an Instagram chat with teammate Stuard Broad, James Anderson put forth his opinion and said a game ‘behind the closed doors’ wouldn’t bother him as long as everything will be placed with safety concern.

“We’ve been a part of the England set up for a long time now. We’ve got some great people working on every possibility and outcome from this summer and going forwards.”
It will be similar to County Cricket
In the live chat session, James Anderson added that playing without spectators would not easy but it will not bother him. He said he had already played in some county matches in similar conditions, which will help him post coronavirus scenario.
“To be honest it will be pretty similar to county cricket!” said the 37-year-old seamer.
