As per reports Ex-NZ captain Brendon McCullum favourite for England Test coach role & IPL franchise KKR announced that he’ll leave from his coaching duties at the end of the season.
Even though he has never coached a first-class team, the more dynamic outlook he showed at the helm of New Zealand could be appealing to new England Test captain Ben Stokes, whose first assignment will be in a three-match Test series against McCullum’s native Black Caps, starting at Lord’s on June 2.
The 40-year-old McCullum is said to have been interviewed for the position and an announcement on the successful candidate could be made at some point this week.
Gary Kirsten was regarded as the early favourite, having led India to the 2011 World Cup and South Africa to the top of the world Test rankings in 2012, but the recent reports suggests that the ex-Proteas batter could miss out again.
