England bowler Reece Topley has blasted the advertising 'Toblerones' around the boundary rope as 'unsafe' after he was ruled out of the T20 World Cup due to an ankle ligament injury.
Topley, who was set to play a key role in England's tournament after remarkably battling back from five stress fractures of the back across a six-year period, was robbed of the chance after he ruptured his ankle ligaments during a fielding drill in Brisbane ahead of the warm-up game against Pakistan.
While practicing boundary saves, Topley got his spikes caught in the plastic coating on the advertising 'Toblerone', went over on his ankle and "ruptured all my ligaments on that outside part of my ankle and tore some muscles around it as well".
