Gough Believes McCullum ‘very Lucky’ To Keep England Coach Job, Admits Hurt Over Selector Snub
Wales Cricket Board: Former England fast bowler Darren Gough has said head coach Brendon McCullum was ‘very lucky’ to retain his job as the head coach after the 4-1 debacle in the Ashes, while admitting he was ‘disheartened’ on missing out on the role of national selector.
Gough, who claimed 467 international wickets and previously served as Yorkshire’s managing director of cricket, missed out on becoming England’s new national selector, with the role going to former Australia batter Marcus North.
North, who played 21 Tests for Australia, was appointed to the role by Rob Key, managing director of men’s cricket at the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), ahead of other candidates, including Gough and Steven Finn, as the replacement for Luke Wright.
