The Rob Key interview

Author: The Telegraph June 1, 2022 Duration: 1:07:39

England cricket legends Michael Vaughan and Phil Tufnell are joined by the Telegraph's Ben Wright for a brand new podcast dedicated to all things cricket! They'll be bringing you analysis from the dizzy heights of the international game all the way down the weird and wonderful world of village cricket.

For the first episode we have drafted in a very special guest. The Managing Director of England cricket Rob Key is in conversation with Vaughany, Tuffers and Ben. He speaks in detail about his transition from broadcasting to the boardroom at the ECB, the appointment of Brendon McCullum, and his plans to overhaul domestic cricket.

We also get his verdict on the Hundred, courtesy of the brightest contributor on the podcast, eight year old Megan, who is never afraid to tell it like it is!
