England's Roy desperate to return to cricket, even behind closed doors

England opener Jason Roy is desperate to get back to playing cricket, even if matches have to take place behind closed doors due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Roy, who was part of England's World-Cup winning team last year, had a taste of playing in an empty stadium in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) earlier this year and said it was a bizarre experience.

"No atmosphere," said the 29-year-old.

"Simple as that to be honest. It was a very strange feeling.

"You're used to, as a batsman, with the bowler running in, it being relatively quiet. You learn to block out the crowd but then as soon as that ball's done you hear the crowd going absolutely berserk and over there when that was the case it was dead silence, it was the strangest thing."
"I think it would be nice just to get out there."
"So that's all I can do, to be honest, hitting a tennis ball against my wall here at home, going a bit stir crazy."
