James Anderson, Stuart Broad will be part of England Ashes squad: Brendon McCullum

James Anderson and Stuart Broad will be part of the squad for next year's Ashes series against Australia, coach Brendon McCullum said. Anderson, 40, and Broad, 36, were part of the England squad that suffered a 0-4 defeat in Australia in the last Ashes, and both were then omitted from the three-match series in West Indies where England lost 0-1. Mired in a run of one win in 17 Tests, England named Ben Stokes to replace Joe Root as captain in April and brought in McCullum as coach in May.

"Lot Better Than I Thought": Brendon McCullum On England Players After Win vs South Africa

England defeated South Africa by 9 wickets in the third and deciding Test match on Monday to bag the three-match series 2-1. This was the second series win for the Three Lions in the longest format under the coaching of Brendon McCullum. The Kiwi international took over the duties in the longest format for England in May this year, replacing Chris Silverwood and the side has won six out of the seven matches played under him since then. The wins also include one over India in the rescheduled fifth Test match.

England potential excites skipper Ben Stokes after Test series win over South Africa

England needed just 25 minutes at the Oval to complete a nine-wicket win over the Proteas in barely more than two days' actual playing time that secured a 2-1 series victory. It also meant England had won six out of seven Tests under a new leadership duo of Stokes and coach Brendon McCullum -- a far cry from a record of one win in 17 matches that marked the end of Joe Root's reign as skipper. New Zealand, the World Test champions were beaten 3-0 before England defeated India in a one-off Test, held over from last year because of coronavirus concerns in the Indian camp, prior to seeing off the Proteas. All of those triumphs were marked by a willingness to engage in dashing run-chases, while removing as much pressure from players as possible, albeit much of England's success, as South Africa captain Dean Elgar noted, was built on traditional fundamentals of the red-ball game.
