India will be playing England in the second T20I today when the WPL Auction will be LIVE. England wicket-keeper Amy Jones says the players will focus on the match as much as possible.
“We had a very similar situation in the (T20) World Cup which was just completely new for us as a group, obviously (the) first auction ever in women’s cricket,” Jones recalled about the last WPL auction. “I do not know if it was a challenge last year — it was something new to consider as a group — this year it will be lot simpler having done it before.
“Our attention will be on the game as much as possible,” she said.
