Jon Norman is joined by the former New Zealand captain Jeremy Coney and Broadcaster Cameron Ponsonby to reflect on England's 253-run defeat to New Zealand at The Oval, and look ahead to the third Test at Trent Bridge next week. Is Brendon McCullum at risk of losing his job if they lose this series? Or will the hierarchy make a decision after this Test Match regardless of the outcome? How will fans feel about Ben Stokes' return to the England side as captain? How will it go down in the dressing room after McCullum & Key refused to publicly back him? How will McCullum's tenure as England Head Coach be defined if he were to leave his role after this series? Do England need to be better at selecting ready-made experienced players rather than throw youngsters in at the deep end?
Listeners outside of the UK can hear live ball-by-ball commentary of next week's third and final Test between England and New Zealand on the talkSPORT Cricket YouTube Channel.
