Sky Sports commentator David Lloyd believes Jonathan Trott's international career could be over after he was forced to leave the current Ashes tour due to a stress-related illness.

Australia opening batsman David Warner publically spoke out on Friday to offer his sympathy to Trott, just days after labelling his dismissal in the second innings of the first Ashes Test 'poor' and 'weak'. Lloyd applauded Warner for speaking out, but also voiced his concern over the amount of controversy Australian sportsmen in a variety of sports are getting themselves into. Lloyd said: "Warner has had a time of reflection and acknowledged that he was out of order and I think that was good of him to do that. "That said, there is a pattern in very recent times. David Warner fighting, in a nightclub, (Rugby League star) Billy Slater fighting, in a nightclub. There are two fellas in the AFL, one has broke the other's jaw, in a Los Angeles nightclub. These are all elite sportsmen and it horrifies me that they put themselves in that position and then get into that kind of fracas."
