PHOTO: Simon Jones stuns followers by posting his nude image on Twitter

Former England fast bowler Simon Jones is once again in the news for a rather awkward reason. He recently posted his completely nude image through his official Twitter account and attracted comments from his former teammates.

All the avid cricket lovers know who Simon Jones is. They can’t forget his lethal bowling against the mighty Australians in the famous Ashes of 2005, where he played an instrumental role in his team winning back the urn. That was Jones’ moment of glory. Frequent injuries hampered his career and eventually, he bid goodbye to the game after playing just 18 Tests and eight ODIs for England.

Fast forward to present and Jones is once again in the news for a rather awkward reason. The former English cricketer recently posted his completely nude image through his official Twitter account. In the image, which shows the player from the back, Jones is seen wearing nothing. He posted the image with the caption that read: “TBT sorry about my ass tweeps.. ;)”
