Brendon McCullum Linked To England Test Coach Role: Reports
Former New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum is now in contention to become England's new Test head coach, according to British media reports. The Daily Mail said McCullum, a key figure behind New Zealand's rise in both red and white ball cricket, had become a candidate on recently-appointed England director of cricket Rob Key's list of possible coaches. Key is known to want to split the Test and limited overs coaching roles, as well as reintroduce an independent selector, with sacked head coach Chris Silverwood widely regarded as having been over-burdened by carrying out all three jobs.
