Cricket<\/a> podcast that the curfew has been abolished, arguing: \u201cI don\u2019t think they work.\u201d It is understood that the relaxing of rules also applies to Brendon McCullum\u2019s and Brook\u2019s white-ball sides.<\/p>\n\u201cThere\u2019s not going to be a curfew,\u201d Root said. \u201cI don\u2019t think this needs to be a big deal, to be honest. My view on curfews is I don\u2019t think they work, and if you want guys to take responsibility on the field, they\u2019ve got to feel like they can be grown adults off it and make good, strong decisions off it.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s for us as a team to manage well, and self-police well, for me and [Fleming] to manage well. Ultimately, you\u2019re grown adults. You know what it takes to play for England. You know what your responsibilities are off the field.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe should be known for how we play our cricket and what we do on the field. We should be on the back page of papers.<\/p>\n
\u201cBe adults, look after yourselves, look after each other, create a good, strong culture where you know when the right time is to celebrate and enjoy a win or to have a sensible beer, and remember you\u2019re playing for England.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t want people to feel like they can\u2019t enjoy winning a Test match. If they want to have a beer at the right time, go and let their hair down, then that\u2019s absolutely fine. You\u2019re human beings at the end of the day. You know what your responsibilities are. Be smart, be sensible, and just be an adult about it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Joe Root has abolished the midnight curfew for his England Test side, telling his players to \u201cbe adults\u201d…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":852741,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[564],"tags":[64,63,740,85],"class_list":["post-852740","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cricket","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-cricket","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/852740","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=852740"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/852740\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/852741"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=852740"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=852740"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=852740"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
