‘Keep trying to apply pressure – there is no dead time’McCullum plays straight bat to calls for Root T20 return
Brendon McCullum believes England need to be relentless when facing spin after their 4-1 Twenty20 international series defeat by India.
While six-hitting seemed the tourists’ focus regardless of the state of the game, McCullum, England’s head coach, does not want his side to hold back against the turning ball in 20-over cricket. Varun Chakravarthy was their main source of discomfort, the leg-spinner named the player of the series after taking 14 wickets at 9.85.
