England ODI captain Eoin Morgan has said that he is jealous of Ben Stokes-led Test team for having Brendon McCullum as their coach.

“It's unbelievably exciting. In many ways I'm jealous of the Test players because, having played both with him and under him, I know what a great man-manager Baz is,” said Morgan.

“The best head coaches have this ability to lighten things up and reiterate what direction you're going in, what your purpose is,”

“It's a brilliant appointment and it says not only a huge amount about English Test cricket but Test cricket in general. We need to be competitive for it to flourish,”

ECB appointed McCullum as the head coach of the Test side following the team's Ashes humiliation in Australia earlier this year.
