Post the Ashes debacle the England cricket team, ODI version, are back in action in Sri Lanka ahead of the T20 World Cup. Both Rob Key and Brendan McCullum remain in place for now as does of course Harry Brook as Captain.
Below is a link to a Test Match Special podcast (21st January)which has a long-ish interview with Brook.
Jonathan Agnew and Stephan Shemilt are the BBC hosts.
It covers the midnight curfew now imposed on the England team, the lifting of the ban on players having a bacon sarnie for breakfast and Brook’s enthusiasm for golf..
Aggers seems to be of the view that Jacob Bethell should replace Brook as the short form captain while Shemilt appears to have a temperance influenced perspective in England cricketers and drinking. The point is made that the England fitness regime is well behind that which now applies in top rank football and rugby (although one suspects darts..)
