Stick to Cricket

England cricket director Rob Key joins Michael Vaughan, Sir Alastair Cook, Phil Tufnell and David Lloyd in the latest episode of Stick to Cricket, brought to you by Betfair from Lord's cricket ground, the Home of Cricket. 🏏

Speaking candidly about life behind the scenes, Rob opens up on the unique pressures of his role, from working with Brendon McCullum and Ben Stokes to navigating the politics of selection and he explains why he believes BazBall has transformed the England mindset.

He also reflects on some of the toughest calls he’s had to make, including leaving Rehan Ahmed out of the Ashes squad and stepping back from choosing the XI on matchdays, while the team discuss why this England side might be the most exciting ever.

Elsewhere, there are stories about Tuffers’ lack of job interviews, Freddie Flintoff’s coaching impact, players misbehaving, and the differences between playing, commentating and directing.
