ENG vs NZ 1ST Test Live: McCullum to tread the path taken by John Wright
Former India coach John Wright was a New Zealander. He coached the Indian team with distinction for five years during the early 2000s. Wright instilled a fearless mentality in the team under Sourav Ganguly’s leadership. Wright’s appointment was also raised eyebrows back then. But the former India coach defied odds and helped India win overseas Tests.
McCullum will also look to take a cue from Wright and try to instill an attacking mindset in England’s Test setup under Ben Stokes’s leadership.
