News Summary:

On January 29, 2026, Moeen Ali asserted that Brendon McCullum remains "definitely the right person" to lead England's Test team, despite the squad's disappointing 4-1 Ashes loss in Australia. Ali noted that "tweaks" are needed, describing the tour as a "golden opportunity" missed for England to secure its first away Ashes win since 2010-11. Previously, on January 25, Joe Root praised McCullum as one of the "best coaches" he had worked with, expressing optimism about the team's future following a win in the second ODI against Sri Lanka, even after the Ashes defeat. This support followed earlier critical assessments on January 10. Reports questioned McCullum's credibility after England was "outplayed in the basics of the game" during the Ashes, suggesting a talented team looked "muddled." Earlier that day, analysis pointed out that "Bazball," the aggressive playing style adopted under Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum, "faltered in its ultimate Test" during the Ashes, contrasting with England's previous record of four wins, 11 losses, and five draws in Tests between January 2021 and early 2022.

Motie, Rutherford make WI dream of 2016 again

MUMBAI: Of late, off-spinner Gudakesh Motie has become West Indies' primary spinner irrespective of the formats. Against Scotland in the opener, he bowled a tight spell choking opponents for runs. But Shimron Hetmyer with his blazing fifty and Romario Shepherd with his five-wicket haul that included a hat-trick walked away with all limelight.

Moeen Ali says Brendon McCullum is "definitely the right person" to lead England's Test team forward but insists "tweaks" are needed following their disappointing Ashes tour.

What Bazball tells us about Britain’s decline

As many predicted, England has yet again lost the Ashes in Australia. But listen closely to the criticism of the defeat and a curious vocabulary emerges. The problem, we are told, was not simply misjudgement but recklessness; not failure but irresponsibility.

Webster saves the day, but Australia reject spin at their peril

A few minutes before tea on day four, a cheer went up around the SCG, for Steve Smith had decided to try a spinner for the 40th over of England’s second innings. Partly the cheer was for the identity of that spinner – cult hero Travis Head – but it was also evidence that another big Sydney crowd had tired of a constant diet of seam bowling.

Australia edge Day 4 despite Bethell's maiden Test ton

Jacob Bethell's maiden Test and first-class ton wasn't enough to consolidate England's position as they accumulated a tender 119-run lead by Stumps on Day 4 at the SCG. After conceding a 183-run first innings lead, England's second innings was marked by periods of hard-earned control followed by swift counter-productive implosions.
