Coach Tim is still working out his role in Ashes series
The Sentinel
|October 17, 2025
CRICKET: Tim Southee is still finalising his backroom role for England at the Ashes but the former New Zealand seamer is only likely to be available for next month's first Test.
-
Southee took up a position as England's fast bowling consultant in the summer after ending an illustrious international career, one that brought 391 wickets in 107 Tests, at the back end of 2024.
Hopes of him being on England's coaching staff for Australia are complicated by his involvement in the ILT20, which begins on December 2, earlier than usual to avoid a clash with February's T20 World Cup.
The resolution could be the 36-year-old overseeing England's quicks' preparations in Perth before departing after the Ashes curtain-raiser, starting on November 21, to head to the United Arab Emirates.
