I've Been Hit Pretty Hard, Had Few Tough Days, Says Hartley On Cold Shoulder From England
Alex, who played 26 ODIs and four T20Is for England, is working as an expert for radio and TV networks in Australia and revealed she was refused an interview by left-arm spinner Sophie Ecclestone during the first T20I which England lost.
It came in the backdrop of Alex questioning the team's fitness levels after they suffered a shock group-stage exit in last year’s Women’s T20 World Cup. England wicketkeeper Amy Jones refuted that Alex has been given a cold shoulder and that the side loves having her around. "It's been a pretty tough few days for me. I wasn't expecting it to be in the newspapers and all over the UK press so it has actually hit me, personally, pretty hard. Ultimately, I was frustrated and upset with the events that unfolded before that first T20," Alex told TNT Sports during the second T20I.
