Flintoff backs Gough

by Admin , 07 March 2010 cricket news

Andrew Flintoff has called for England to appoint former England international bowler Darren Gough as the new bowling coach.


It has been suggested that former South African quick Allan Donald is the current favourite to replace Otis Gibson, who left to become coach of the West Indies, with Australian Michael Kasprowicz also linked with the vacant role.

However, Flintoff, who has recently retired from Test cricket, believes England should look to Gough as the man to fill the void.

He said: "I know Alan has been mentioned along with Michael Kasprowicz. "

They are nice blokes but I'm sure Darren would do it.

He would be great.

He knows bowling inside and out so they should ask Goughie."

Gough played in 58 Tests during his time as an England international taking 229 wickets.
