England cricketer Jonny Bairstow, currently in Abu Dhabi with the England Lions, requested assistance as airlines in the Middle East canceled and diverted flights due to recent US and Israel strikes against Iran.
Bairstow expressed frustration over the lack of communication after his flight was canceled, reaching out for help via social media platforms like Twitter and Emirates, but to no avail.
The situation has impacted various athletes, with England Lions’ game against Pakistan Shaheens and England Women’s training camp delayed, while Indian shuttler PV Sindhu and Bangladesh’s Mushfiqur Rahim also faced travel disruptions in Dubai and Jeddah, respectively.
