No sport in which the players spend longer away. No sport in which easy interaction with the group is more key.
An individual has to be extraordinarily good to be high maintenance in cricket.

Jofra Archer is very, very good. And England's players like him, there is no doubt of that. Yet it is equally true his behaviour this week has scuppered their best-laid plans; undermined and weakened them in a Test they must not lose to stay in the series.
He could have cost his sport millions, too, in a summer when it does not have that money spare. So, for all his talent, Archer needs to grow up, and quickly. He's inexperienced but no baby. He's 25.
He should not have needed retelling cricket's Covid-19 protocols had to be strictly observed.
Archer, the ECB were quick to point out, was very sorry for his actions but he needed to be. No sport had to jump through hoops like cricket to get going this year.
No sport worked harder to get the game on. It would not be exaggerating to say the very future was at stake if not a ball had been bowled.
Playing international cricket this summer is worth £180million. Each Test is worth £20m, even without crowds. That is why the rules are so rigid. That is why there are tracking devices and biosecure areas and designated places on the motorway to stop for a break between venues.
Former West Indies bowler Michael Holding was particularly critical of Archer's actions
This is what was needed to play. What if Archer's ill-discipline had made West Indies skittish? What if he'd placed the match in jeopardy? No wonder the management team are said to be furious.
Allies were hard to find. Michael Holding came off his long run again when asked to sympathise with young men cooped up in four-star hotels for weeks on end. ‘I don't understand why people can't just do what is required,' said Holding, stone-faced.
