- Test head coach is in Mumbai and staying in team’s hotel
- Bairstow says the squad remains calm after early defeats
Brendon McCullum has backed England to recover from the unconvincing start to their World Cup defence, saying that despite the two defeats in their opening three games there is still time for their quality to show.
“They just need to stay true to their method and their style which has brought them so much success and not get shaken by the odd bad day at the office,” McCullum told the Mirror. “Of course the boys would have liked to be 3 and 0, but sport doesn’t work like that and sometimes you have to cope with challenges and then show how good you are. One thing is for sure, there are good reasons why England have won two World Cups recently.”
