The excitement due to Jason Roy’s decision! Will England beat cricket for league cricket? The opener himself gave the explanation
England cricket has been in the news for the past few months due to their players. A few days ago, there were reports that some of England’s leading players are preparing to break their contracts with the national team to play in league cricket. It has recently been reported that England opener Jason Roy is going to play in the Major League starting this year in America. For this he was said to be preparing to sever his ties with the national team. Now Roy himself has put an end to all these discussions by sharing a post.
The Major League Cricket season is starting in America from this year. A total of 6 teams will participate in this league. According to media reports, Jason Roy can play for Los Angeles Knight Riders in this league. Roy was also rumored to have received Rs 30 crore for a two-year contract from the franchise. After a lot of discussion about this in the media, Roy shared a post on his official social media account. The opener clarified from this post that he will not leave the support of England cricket.
“I have been getting some predictions in the last 24 hours. In the same background, I would like to say that I am not ‘quitting England cricket.’ I had a detailed discussion with the England Cricket Board about participating in the Major League. ECB was also happy that I was playing in this league. But all this was before I was paid for the remaining year of the national team contract. It is a matter of pride for me to represent my country as a professional cricketer. I hope to continue playing for England for many years to come and this will be my first time.”

“With no national contract, I wanted to play in the league. Because currently the England team does not want to play any scheduled series. As an England player, I play as much cricket as possible and I enjoy it. To be clear, my priority is England cricket. We want to play the World Cup in the near future. Winning the World Cup for our country is an honor for any cricketer, including me.”
Meanwhile, Jason Roy also played in the IPL this year. He scored 285 runs in 8 matches for Kolkata Knight Riders. This included his two fifties. Roy’s role has been crucial for KKR this IPL season. It remains to be seen if Roy will play for the Los Angeles Knight Riders in the near future. The decision will be largely in the hands of the ECB as well as Roy.
