“And here in Australia, we are thinking about coming back of crowds. Here we feel safe. Undoubtedly all it is a step by step process and takes precautions, but according to me there are a lot of things to think about.”
Critics of Kevin Roberts, mostly the association of the players and dissatisfied state associations, considered him a pessimist and sledge his rejection to talk the game up.
Hockley said in a comparatively optimistic tone:
“It is extremely difficult.. it is regarding making sure that we provide the summer more safely & securely, and trying out best. We are concentrating on all these priorities.”
“Summer is coming very soon. We incurred it to the cricket players, fans, and the whole cricket community to be together. The primary thing I have to do is speed up the things, I have to do a lot of readings too.”
