To spice up our coverage of the Ashes this year, we’re going to bring you an Aussie perspective every now and again. When we were growing up, and England were captained by the likes of Chris Cowdrey, we used to see Aussie fans as extremely confident (cocky, one might say) with a penchant for extracting…
The dust has settled. The celebrations are over. Magical as our miracle escape against New Zealand was, a few home truths must be digested. We can still be confident about the Ashes – Australia’s humiliation against India leaves their team spirit and confidence in tatters – but things aren’t looking as good as they were…
‘The King of Spain’ is taking over as England’s ODI and T20 coach From the moment he gave up playing professional cricket, Ashley Giles has wanted to be England’s head coach. He did everything he needed to do. He cuddled up to the right people at the ECB and was almost immediately made a national…

India wanted him, but they didn’t get him. It has just been announced that Andy Flower has renewed his contract with the ECB and will remain as England’s ‘Team Director’ i.e. the guy that does the fielding drills, picks the team, and designs team strategies (why they just can’t call him ‘England coach’ is anyone’s…
News emerged overnight that Andy Flower might be on the shortlist to replace Gary Kirsten as India coach. Oi India! Hands off our coach! You’ve already got the World Cup. Give the rest of us a break. Besides, did you actually watch England in one day cricket’s showpiece? We were rubbish. Flower only does Test…
