Edwards is a top class appointment but it can’t be ignored that ECB broke their own pledge on equity by not running an open recruitment process. It might have delivered the same outcome, but several people in the game have not had the opportunity to express interest by applying.

England now without a Head Coach & a captain have painted themselves into a very tight corner, which will take at least 3 years to get out of. Sacrilegious lack of forward planning.

England-Afghanistan boycott calls: ECB want ICC-wide approach to Champions Trophy issue The England and Wales Cricket Board calls for a unified response to action against Afghanistan amid calls for the England men's team to boycott next month's Champions Trophy match against the country.

ECB: "A coordinated, ICC-wide approach would be significantly more impactful than unilateral actions by individual members."
Yes it would.
But in the absence of that the ECB must act.
Stop deflecting responsibility.

It's a great question and honestly I don't know what to do other than raising awareness and applying pressure?

I'm hoping both Laurens will play to their best, but it's hard when there's been a lot of reliance on them recently! Of course, there's Gibson to think about too.

I'd love to see Voll included but with the strength of that squad, it does bring about questions!

This is something I talk a LOT about in person but haven't actually written about yet.

The situation is shocking and the fact that it's happening (and partially being enabled by the ICC within the cricketing sphere) makes me truly sad
