Former England cricketer and TV pundit Alex Hartley says she has been "hung out to dry" by the current England team after she questioned their fitness levels.
The former spinner claimed current bowler Sophie Ecclestone refused a TV interview with her ahead of the first Women's Ashes T20 on Monday.
Hartley, who won the World Cup with England back in 2017, came out and criticised England's fitness back in October when they suffered an early exit in the T20 World Cup following a shock loss to West Indies in Dubai.
She said that some of the England players were "letting their team down" with their fitness
