Gary Ballance: Jason Gillespie would do a great job if appointed England coach

England batsman Gary Ballance along with his teammates trains ahead of their first Test against New Zealand at Lord’s. With England looking for new coach, Ballance says that Jason Gillespie would do a great job, if he is appointed the coach.

Ballance was in good nick in the series against West Indies and he will want to carry his momentum on in this series as well. Ballance also backs Adam Lyth to do well if he gets chance. Lyth plays under Gillespie at Yorkshire and is one of the seasoned campaigners in County Cricket, with over 6,700 runs in 103 First-Class matches.
