Thought this would be bumped, but by someone with fewer cringeposts in their locker.
The team was dreadful when he first took over and he looked like a poor appointment but fair play he's got them to hit peak at just the right time and happy to admit I was wrong.
Selection of Curran and Hales have been big decisions

We’ve just won the World Cup ffs. Talk about doubling downOut of four white ball series last summer we lost three and drew one.

So? It’s not football like, you think mott caused all those results?
Just won a World Cup
Another brilliant decision by Key, who literally hasn’t made one mistake yet
Mott was very successful with the Australian women's team

I can't say I was enamoured with the appointment, but TBF, we had a new coach AND a new captain, plus gave game time to some new players. Was always gonna be a rocky startOut of four white ball series last summer we lost three and drew one.

Personally I think this side is soo full of talent and experienced performers not sure a coach of this particular side makes that much difference

Agree in cricket if you have a captain who is a genuine leader with the advantage of a couple of trusted senior pros they should run the team.
Silverwood to McCullum says otherwise

What about the change of captaincy. Stokes is running that team. Root is a great batsmen but never had it ad a captain.Debate ended right there.
Change from Root to Stokes.

Absolutely totally agree, I was making reference to the current white ball team
And think that is where our white ball team is at the moment
The t20 side has defs improved like
They’re loads more flexible and did loads of great things
Stokes opening bowling, Curran death bowler, 7 of side can bowl.
Making the batting lineup even more flexible about who comes in at certain moments
Under Morgan we’d have played a batter less and a bowler more, which we didn’t need
We will see on the 50 stuff but the t20 stuff defs improved. We wouldn’t have won this under Morgan in my opinion, who is obviously brilliant, but had so much say that he wouldn’t let anyone influence it
In general but there’s loads of specifics you’ve ignored
The t20 has changed loads even since the summer
It’s another brilliant decision by Rob key
I was mixed on him as a commentator but I was really pleased with him getting this gig as he isn’t a corporate suit. Literally everything he has done, appointment etc has been brilliant
He’s also chairing selection and doing a class job, I hope he sticks at it

However Hales being out of the side for so long was a good thing. First and foremost we have been excellent without him with 2 out of Buttler, Bairstow and Roy doing everything Hales could for a good while and importantly there was a trust issue not just with Morgan but Stokes also who has only recently got back onside with Hales. We had a great side and didn't need the distraction Hales was bringing with his off the field demeanors. I doubt Hales would admit it but he has learned from being out of the side.
