The Lancashire all-rounder has exactly 100 caps for his country across all three formats but has not featured for over a year.<\/p>\n
In an interview with ESPNCricinfo<\/i>, the 32-year-old was highly critical of his treatment by England director of cricket Rob Key.<\/p>\n
He also described his time at last year\u2019s Champions Trophy as \u201cthe worst experience I\u2019ve had playing cricket\u201d and said he did not miss being involved in the recent T20 World Cup.<\/p>\n
The England and Wales Cricket Board\u2019s Ashes review, covering \u201ctour planning and preparation, individual performance and behaviours\u201d after the 4-1 thrashing in Australia, is still ongoing.<\/p>\n
Livingstone, reflecting on a lack of communication after his dropping in a brief phone call by England coach Brendon McCullum in May, said: \u201cI don\u2019t think it would have reached a minute.<\/p>\n
\u201cI asked why; they said they wanted to try someone else. That was off Baz (McCullum). Brooky (captain Harry Brook) sent me a text.<\/p>\n
\u201cKeysy said nothing, (he) said \u2018I\u2019ll speak to you in the summer\u2019.<\/p>\n
\u201cI actually rang him one day, and he said he was busy at a Test camp at Loughborough and then I didn\u2019t hear off him until the end of September.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat probably sums that group up as a collective. That was a bit of an eye-opening experience about the group and the regime: if you\u2019re in, you\u2019re in, and if you\u2019re not in, no-one cares about you.\u201d<\/p>\n
