County team Surrey has cancelled Australian pacer Michael Neser’s contract for this year’s domestic season due to uncertainty over County cricket in England amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. Nasser has thus become the first overseas player to be affected by the coronavirus situation in England. Neser was due to be part of the first team squad until the beginning of July playing in County Championship cricket. 

Surrey Director of Cricket Alec Stewart  said,  “Given the testing times we find ourselves in, I would like to thank Michael Neser and his management company for their total understanding of the current situation and full agreement of this decision. An all-rounder Neser has played 2 ODIs for Australia. He was also part of the Kings X1 squad in 2013 wherein he made his debut appearance for the franchise in 2013. For those not in the know, even the English domestic season has been suspended till May 28th.
