Neil Manthorp is joined by the former England fast bowler Steve Harmison to reflect on Stephen Fleming's appointment as the England Test Head Coach. They discuss what he'll bring to the role, what it will be like working with Brendon McCullum, and also react to the news that Joe Root has succeeded Ben Stokes as the Test captain. They are also joined on the show by the former New Zealand Head Coach John Bracewell to give them an insight into what to expect from Stephen Fleming during his tenure, and where it went so wrong for Brendon McCullum as Test Coach. Listeners outside of the UK can hear live ball-by-ball commentary of England's three-match series against Pakistan on the talkSPORT Cricket YouTube Channel.
