New Zealand excited to face off against old skipper McCullum

The Hindu  

Brendon McCullum will be a "massive asset" in the English dressing room and the coach's aggressive mindset should fit hand-in-glove with captain Ben Stokes, New Zealand batter Henry Nicholls said. Named England head coach last week, former New Zealand captain McCullum will plot the downfall of his old team in the three-Test series starting at Lord's on June 2. "It’s been well documented the impact he’s had on New Zealand cricket and the culture within the team, so he’s going to be a massive asset to England," Nicholls told reporters. "It’s certainly an exciting time for England cricket from a test point of view and it’s going to be a great challenge for us."
