England cricket stars forced to arrive to West Indies ODI match on Lime bikes amid ‘shambles' at The Oval
ENGLAND cricket stars have been forced to arrive for their Test match against the West Indies on Lime bikes. The team are facing off at the Oval in London for the third ODI of the series. 1 England go into the match having won the two previous ODIs. However, their arrival for the third one has caught attention as the players took to Lime bikes to get to the stadium. Harry Brook, Brydon Carse and Matthew Potts were pictured arriving on the bikes while wearing their training kit. The reason for the mode of transport was that a road outside the ground was closed. The West Indies team have also been delayed arriving due to being stuck in traffic. They were staying in a hotel around four miles from the Oval but arrived at 12.40pm, which was ten minutes after the scheduled coin toss. Due to the delays, the match start has been delayed. England won the first ODI by a massive 238 runs after hitting 400 in their 50 overs. The visitors did not get close as they were bowled out after just 26.2 overs for 162. In the second ODI, the West Indies set England a total of 308 to chase at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff. Joe Root was the hero as he came to the crease with both openers falling for ducks. The batter smashed 166 runs himself as he steered England to victory. More to follow... THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY..
