England’s managing director Rob Key takes us behind the curtain as he plots England’s attempt to win back the Ashes down under. Key talks to Jos and Broady about selecting England’s Ashes squad and how the players will be managed to give them the best chance of upsetting Australia. He talks about playing poker with Shane Warne and the crucial influence of the great Australian spinner on England’s aggressive playing style. Key urges his England players to “be smart” off the pitch in Australia and explains why he’s so excited by the “generational talent” of batter Jacob Bethell.
