Key also gives updates on Ben Stokes & Jofra Archer.
Also, Key tells Kevin that it’s “quality not quantity” when it to comes to calls for shortening the domestic schedule. Key had a seventeen-year career in county cricket and wants the best conditions for cricketers to develop and be better placed for making the jump from the County Championship to international level.
