England have added former Australia batsman Michael Hussey and the ex-bowling coach David Saker to their backroom staff for the Twenty20 World Cup, the country's cricket board (ECB) said on Wednesday.
David Saker is set to reprise his role as England's fast bowling coach for this year's Ashes after the Australian was approached by skipper Ben Stokes at the Twenty20 World Cup last year.
Already led by an Australian in head coach Matthew Mott, England has also hired two more people from Down Under — its former fast-bowling coach, David Saker, and ex-international batter Michael Hussey — to be part of the backroom team for the tournament. Saker, who will begin his consultancy contract during the forthcoming T20 series in Pakistan that precedes the T20 World Cup, spent five years with the England men's team before leaving in 2015.
Former Australian great Michael Hussey has joined the England white-ball coaching set-up as a consultant for the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup. Hussey will provide expert assistance to the support staff headed by head coach Matthew Mott. England and Wales Cricket Board announced through a release.
