Can Brendon McCullum prove he can adapt and learn after the ECB announced he will remain as England Head Coach? Can the ECB improve the culture of the team both on and off the field? What will England do to adapt and learn after a 4-1 defeat in the Ashes? Has Richard Gould and Richard Thompson made the right decision by backing Brendon McCullum to turn things around? Will there now be an improved relationship between England and County Cricket? Will there be more accountability when it comes to England selection?
