Is playing for the England cricket team that stressful?

Then opening batsman Marcus Trescothick left the 2005-06 tour of India and the 2006-07 Ashes tour of Australia with a stress-related condition. Now Jonathan Trott has left the current Ashes tour of Australia because of a long-standing stress-related condition.

Now I understand stress-related illness, boy do I understand it... And I don't want to minimise its seriousness but could Jonathan Trott's condition possibly be the first case of Mitchell Johnsonitis?

Of course there might be a non-cricketing explanation as to why Jonathan Trott is depressed...
Jonathan Trott supports Tottenham Hotspur, not a good weekend for a Spurs supporting England cricketer...

If you can't do the job, get out of the bloody way. I applaud him for his honesty in recognising that he's useless.

Jonathan Trott is not useless, he did however play appalingly in this test.
