Ashes Much Like A Heavyweight Boxing Fight: Brendon Mccullum
England head coach Brendon McCullum compared the Ashes series to a clash between two heavyweight boxers, emphasising the formidable strength of both sides involved, after the conclusion of the fifth and final game at The Oval. England overcame the Pat Cummins-led Australia by 49 wickets in the fifth Test at The Oval as a magnificent Ashes series came to an end with a 2-2 scoreline. "Amazing to be part of this series. Two incredible cricket teams with contrasting styles much like a heavyweight boxing fight and it lived up to the billing.
It was really special. I am very proud of the way our boys stayed very strong about what we wanted to do throughout the series. It is a nice reflection of a great series," McCullum told Sky Sports.
McCullum also lauded star pacer Stuart Broad, who called time on his Test career at the end of the series, and said the team is going to miss the stalwart of England cricket in the dressing room, adding that the 37-year-old veteran deserved to go on his own terms.
