We caught a glimpse of all-rounder Chris Woakes and paceman Olly Stone working with Bears Bowling Coach Pop Welch at the Indoor School at Edgbaston.

The England duo are part of 55-strong group of men’s players who have been asked to return to training, as England prepare for the prospect of behind-closed-doors cricket.

Hampshire’s Ageas Bowl and Lancashire’s Emirates Old Trafford will host England’s Test series against West Indies, if international cricket returns behind closed doors in July.

  • 1st Test v West Indies: 8-12 July at Ageas Bowl 
  • 2nd Test v West Indies: 16-20 July at Emirates Old Trafford
  • 3rd Test v West Indies: 24-28 July at Emirates Old Trafford
