YellsyO'Keefe tells ECB to stick with McCullum as head coach
Steve O'Keefe, the former Aussie spinner, is calling for the ECB to keep Brendon McCullum as England's head coach after they dropped two matches in the Ashes 2025-26 series. He says McCullum's Bazball has injected fresh energy compared to the Root-Silverwood era, but he needs to adapt and take criticism like a champ to tackle the Australians. Adapt, McCullum — or you're just an idiot sandwich!
