BazBall Continues? McCullum to Stay & England’s Big Decision | Stick to Cricket EP 38

Stick to Cricket returns as Michael Vaughan, Phil Tufnell, Sir Alastair Cook and David “Bumble” Lloyd react to a huge week for English cricket - Brought to you by Betfair!

With confirmation that Brendon McCullum is set to stay on, the team debate whether the BazBall style will continue and whether any real change is coming. There’s strong discussion around where England have gone wrong, whether players are overthinking their performances and why so few international careers end on a high.

The panel also react to the latest press conference, even picking up the phone to get insight from inside the room, before turning their attention to the future of the England set-up, including who could become the next selector.

Attention then shifts to the pitch, with the team picking their next England Test XI, debating the batting order, discussing the best options with the ball and asking the big question… who should be opening this summer?

There’s also a look ahead to the IPL, with predictions on who will come out on top.

The team then ask whether McCullum will still be in charge for the next Ashes and which players to watch in the upcoming county season.

Insightful, honest and full of strong opinions, this is another must-watch episode of Stick to Cricket.
