By all intents and purposes this is a done deal, pretty dynamic and forward-thinking appointment, but here's me thinking it will all end in tears as the bloke has never coached at First-Class level. Should be fun to watch England under his tutelage mind.

I must say, I'm not convinced this is a *great* idea but it's certainly one I would pay to watch, and what is sport if not entertainment?

They're splitting the role aren't they? So is he doing the Test job!?

Oh gosh. Okay! I agree that he's probably going to be terrible but entertaining. If there's one thing English Test batsmen already know how to do, it's how to play one eye-catching and dashing innings amidst all of the holing out to long on.

Key summed it up pretty well: 'Time for us all to buckle up and get ready for the ride.'

I think it is a positive appointment, he will provide energy to the team and hopefully they will have a certain direction and brand of cricket. Also hope his batting pedigree can help our batters.

I think we may have to consider the possibility that McCullum has in fact solved cricket.
