Last month, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) appointed Stephen Fleming as the new Test head coach of the England National Cricket Team after they sacked Brendon McCullum from the role following the series loss to New Zealand. Now Stephen Fleming has urged former Australia batter and the CSK legend, Michael Hussey, to join his England coaching staff.
Michael Hussey has had a long association with Stephen Fleming since the days when the latter was the head coach of the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) franchise. Hussey has played under Fleming as the head coach and later joined the Men in Yellow as a batting coach in the Indian Premier League (IPL). It will be interesting to watch if Hussey takes up a new role.
Stephen Fleming urges Michael Hussey for batting coach role
According to SEN Cricket's Tom Morris, Stephen Fleming has been in contact with Michael Hussey and asked him whether he would take up the batting coach role for the England Test side. However, the ECB has not made an official offer or contact to the former Australia batter, so there are doubts over whether he will be given the Test batting coach role.
Less than a week after winning the England Test role, Stephen Fleming has made contact with Michael Hussey to see if he’d be interested in joining his staff. 🏏
