The name’s Fleming… Stephen Fleming. As England prepare to welcome their new head coach, James Coyne looks at his cricketing past on our shores with the people who know him best.
Notts director of cricket Mick Newell remembers the New Zealander’s time with the county, while the BBC’s Andrew Radd recalls his time playing club cricket in Northamptonshire.
Plus, James is joined by editor Huw Turbervill for a look at The Cricketer’s new September issue – out now – which includes a special feature on Paul Edwards’ outground travels to the likes of Darlington, Sedbergh and Guildford.
