Commenting on the appointments for the tour of Australia, ECB performance director Mo Bobat said: "We are looking forward to getting our prep period underway on the Gold Coast ahead of the Ashes and Lions Tour, respectively. wtb speedterra tcs 2.0 650b "Harry's had limited opportunities in the past and he's been in and out a bit. wtb speedterra tcs 2.0 650b I completely believe the ECB is trying to do that. I come from a south Asian community in Essex and I know what Essex are trying to do in that community. I have seen what England are trying to do. Their players on Saturday will be taking a knee against South Africa. We have been at Headingley where their players have stood there with T-shirts on with 'We stand against racism'. You can't have that and then have a club who in their own findings said that Azeem Rafiq was a victim of bullying and racial harassment. They put that out on that day at Old Trafford and then put out [last week] that we are not going to do anything about it, we are not going to hold anyone accountable to that. Those two things for me in particular do not marry together at all in any way. You can't have one without the other. The ECB have to have a look at this and come down strongly on it. wtb speedterra tcs 2.0 650b "For the period until the end of the warm-up matches, the coaching team will assist both groups of players. However, once we start the final build-up to the first Ashes Test, we will then split into two distinct groups with the Lions preparing for their four-day match against Australia A on December 9."Head coach: Chris Silverwood wtb speedterra tcs 2.0 650b
