ICC T20 World Cup preview: Politics, six-hitting & England's chances

There will be times when I do stand up and talk.

At the Invincibles though, with Tom Moody, we've got a really sort of well-oiled machine there.

Sky Sports Cricket Podcast
ICC T20 World Cup preview: Politics, six-hitting & England's chances

We didn't have as many meetings and it was a bit more conversational in how I'd pass things over.

Sky Sports Cricket Podcast

So

Sky Sports Cricket Podcast

It depends on the environment.

Sky Sports Cricket Podcast
ICC T20 World Cup preview: Politics, six-hitting & England's chances

And yeah, there are times when you send stuff and you don't know what's done with it.

And there are other times when you're right at the coalface and you're involved in a lot more of the sort of detailed discussions day to day about selection, tactics, bowling plans, bowling changes.

Sky Sports Cricket Podcast

So it varies really.

Sky Sports Cricket Podcast
ICC T20 World Cup preview: Politics, six-hitting & England's chances

I think there's probably two ways of looking at it.

Sky Sports Cricket Podcast

The one way where I would say England are sort of involved with data and they take a lot of it on board is probably the sort of pre the team getting together.

So Kizzee, I had a good relationship with Kizzee.

Sky Sports Cricket Podcast

I've known him for a long time.

Sky Sports Cricket Podcast

I did quite a lot of work quite closely with Kizzee and some of the guys in the system at the ECB involved in selection, people like David Corp.

who would then feed in information to selection meetings.

Sky Sports Cricket Podcast

And I think that would be a really rigorous process at that stage.

Sky Sports Cricket Podcast

And there'll often be quite big sort of dossiers of data, if you like, that would be sent to, whether that would be Matthew Mott, maybe slightly less so when Baz took over, but there was still a sort of an emphasis on rigor at that stage.

Sky Sports Cricket Podcast
ICC T20 World Cup preview: Politics, six-hitting & England's chances

I think it was more, the change for me was more from Motti to Baz was probably that

then at the team level, day to day, I was less involved as an analyst.

Sky Sports Cricket Podcast
ICC T20 World Cup preview: Politics, six-hitting & England's chances

Now, it doesn't mean that Baz was disregarding the information I had.

It's just, it is a different way of operating.
