We’ve Been Building Towards This Moment, Says McCullum Ahead Of Ashes Opener
England Cricket: England head coach Brendon McCullum believes his team is prepared for the Ashes series that could be 'defining' for them.
Since taking charge in 2022, McCullum and captain Ben Stokes have rejuvenated the England Test team, and the former New Zealand captain said the Englishmen have been ‘building to this moment’ come the first Test in Perth starting on Friday.
“There's nothing bigger than what we're about to come into. This team has been together for a good couple of years and we have been building towards this moment. It is the biggest stage and it is the brightest lights. It is a series that could define teams, the people and players within it. That's OK. You know you're ready, you know you have the game to compete at this level. Stay together, play the style you have become accustomed to and we'll see in a couple of months where we land,” McCullum told BBC Sport.
