Stephen Fleming has been appointed as England's new Test cricket coach, set to take charge later this year following a home series against Pakistan. Former New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum, who was recently replaced as England's Test coach, praised Fleming as a highly capable leader and expressed confidence in his abilities. Fleming, known for his success coaching Chennai Super Kings in the IPL, will work alongside McCullum, who remains England's limited-overs coach, aiming for collaboration on player availability and team success.
