Trott's Timescale

Warwickshire County Cricket team (to be renamed the Birmingham Bears in the 2014 season's T20 Blast tournament) has confirmed there is no return date for England batsman Trott.

Director Dougie Brown spoke out about the situation; "It's all about Trotty getting better. There's no timescale from us and I'm sure there's not from England either".

England coach Andy Flower explains that Jonathan Trott "needs time to reassess" and get some "rest and recuperation" but hopes he "will continue to be a brilliant international batsman for England in the future".

The South-African born batsman flew home, shortly after England lost the first test of the Ashes to Australia by 381 runs, to be reunited with his wife and 3-year-old daughter.

Colin Povey, Warwickshire chief executive, promised to give him "as much support as we can" on his road to recovery from the long-standing stress-related condition that saw the ICC and ECB Cricketer of the Year pull out of the current Ashes series down under.
