Jason Gillespie advises Stephen Fleming on McCullum-Stokes era lessons

Jason Gillespie has encouraged Stephen Fleming to adopt beneficial aspects from the Brendon McCullum-Ben Stokes era as he takes on the England Test head coach role. Fleming, who has extensive coaching experience with Chennai Super Kings, will not be available for the upcoming Pakistan series, with Marcus Trescothick stepping in as interim coach. Following a series of disheartening results, Fleming’s predecessor McCullum was removed from the position after a 4-1 Ashes defeat and a home loss to New Zealand. Joe Root returns as captain after Stokes' retirement, which adds another layer of transition to the team.
