“Broad and Anderson will see themselves in Ashes 2023”, Brendon McCullum


Brendon McCullum – England cricket team seems to have a completely different perspective under coach McCullum. The test series win against New Zealand in some most iconic ways scripted the beginning of the McCullum era.

Ben Stokes and co went out there to play cricket in the most fearlessly way reminding everyone of McCullum’s style of playing cricket. In the past during the captaincy of Joe Root, England cricket had a defensive approach towards the opposition teams.

But that seems changed when duo Stokes-McCullum brought the team to Flore with a different mindset. And that was too visible when they defeated India in the only test match.

England defeat South Africa by 2-1 under Brendon McCullum

While in the recent test series after trailing by 0-1 England bounced back and win the test series by 2-1 against South Africa. Not to forget that the last test match result came in the 3 days of play.

In the last 7 test matches, England registered victory in 6 test matches since 2004 in which Broad and Anderson too included. After the series win, McCullum said,

These two are just incredible players and one of the greats of the game. The legacy they establish inspires the coming generations.

McCullum believed the England dressing room is fortunate to have these two in the company. The time these two spend in the dressing room provides much-needed confidence to other players.

McCullum also believes these two will definitely see themselves in the Ashes 2023 with the kind of experience they have in red ball cricket.

Both broad and Anderson have taken over 500 wickets each in test cricket averaging less than 18. While for England cricket James Anderson has the most capped player with 175 appearances.

For the upcoming T-20 World Cup, Michael Hussey has been appointed as the consultant. Before the world cup, England will tour Pakistan for limited overs cricket.

After 2005, It will be the first visit of England Cricket to Pakistan to play any cricket match. Due to security issues, many teams in the past had cancelled their tour of Pakistan.
