I think he would rather walk away than be seen to be a naughty boy having to do things a different way because he's told to by a bloke in a suit.

How important is the T20 World Cup for Brendan McCullum?

Well, I think you can... Perhaps you try and answer that as well, because, you know, two entirely different set-ups, two entirely different teams.

T20 World Cups can be a bit of a lottery.

You know, the T20 games.

People would want England to do well.

The odds are they won't.

So, I think, you know, if you talk about...

Comparing the two, the biggest disappointment would be this one, because people actually really expected England to do well.

I don't think that's the level of expectation in a C20 tournament on the subcontinent.

If we do semifinals, I think people are going to be realistic and accept that would be a pretty good result in that.

But here, people expected England to compete properly, and that's the big disappointment.

Okay, so we looked at the captain, Ben Stokes, and he says, I want to continue.

Brendan McCombs says, I want to continue, but we'll see how that looks.

And then there's Rob Key, the managing director of England Cricket, who sits above those two in a way.

He decides the planning, I suppose, and the planning, he admitted it himself, didn't he?

In the series, it's not been great.

Where...

what about his position well i think he again has to be has to be told to change if he wants if he wants to continue his job he has to be much more held to account and also he needs to make sure that those who are employing these things who come to him with these these structures for the tours are also held to account i i can't i i can't imagine how he thought

that this series was going to work with the amount of preparation, and yet he didn't stand up and say to Brendan McCullum or to Ben Stokes, I'm sorry, come on lads, this is not going to work.
