When George Garton made his England debut in the T20I series against the West Indies in January 2022, it should have signalled the start of another landmark year in his career.
The left-arm seamer had enjoyed an impressive 2021 which saw him earn a call-up to England's ODI squad, win the inaugural edition of The Hundred with Southern Brave and receive an IPL deal with Virat Kohli's Royal Challengers Bangalore.
However, Garton ended up having what he describes as the "worst season of my career" and admits he was left "thinking I might not be able to do this any more" after being misdiagnosed with long Covid.
