Michael Vaughan Reckons This Ex-Indian Team Coach Would've Been A Better England Coach Than McCullum

By IANS News May 14, 2022 • 15:31 PM View: 979

Former England skipper Michael Vaughan has questioned the England and Wales Cricket Board's (ECB) decision to hire Kolkata Knight Riders coach, New Zealand's Brendon McCullum, to guide the country's Test side, saying that South Africa's Gary Kirsten was better suited for the job.

The 40-year-old McCullum, a former New Zealand captain, was recently appointed the England Test team coach by England men's cricket managing director Rob Key after weeks of speculation. McCullum will quit his job with KKR at the end of the IPL 2022 season to join the Ben Stokes-led side for their upcoming three-Test series against New Zealand, starting on June 2 at Lord's.
