## Resource

Neil Manthorp is joined by the former England fast bowler Steve Harmison and the former New Zealand captain Jeremy Coney to reflect on England's 2-1 series defeat to New Zealand? What now for Ben Stokes following his retirement from International Cricket? Is there any way back for him if the current regime changes, or is he done as an International Cricketer? How much pressure is under England Head Coach Brendon McCullum? What will England's XI be for the first Test against Pakistan later this summer? How are people in New Zealand feeling about this England side under Brendon McCullum? How big an achievement is this for New Zealand to come from behind to win a three-match Test series away from home? Listeners outside of the UK can hear live ball-by-ball commentary of England's next Test series at home to Pakistan on the talkSPORT Cricket YouTube Channel.
