'I won't say no': CSK legend considers England batting coach role
"There is a lot of different things to consider. My short answer is I would not say no to anything really," Hussey told Fox Sports News.
Former Australian cricketer Mike Hussey has opened up about the possibility of coaching England’s batting during next year’s Ashes series. Hussey, who has been approached by England head coach Stephen Fleming, said he is open to the idea but has not made a final decision. The two have worked together for 15 years with their IPL franchise, Chennai Super Kings.
Hussey, who scored 6,235 runs in 79 Tests for Australia, admitted that coaching for England against Australia in an Ashes series would feel weird. However, he emphasized that he would not let the rivalry affect his coaching. Hussey backed Fleming to do well as England coach and believes the team will play positive cricket with more control.
He expects the coach to strike a balance between enjoyment and fun while moving the game forward in a smarter way.
