Karthik said that the former England coach Andy Flower is one of the finest coaches in the world and has all the qualities needed to lead England's Test team.
During his discussion with Nasser Hussain on his podcast, Dinesh Karthik said that Andy Flower should definitely be among the candidates being considered by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB).
Dinesh Karthik said in his social media video, “Genuinely now, in all seriousness, I think he'll be a great candidate. But I would be very surprised if he took it, considering where England is and his packed schedule as well. He used to do a lot of leagues, and I'm sure he didn't have time.”
Dinesh Karthik says RCB contract is biggest hurdle for Andy Flower's England role
Explaining his point of view, Karthik has recalled how England has already faced criticism a few months back when Jofra Archer and Jacob Bethell missed the Test matches against New Zealand because of IPL 2026 commitments. Amid this, Brendon McCullum opens up on Test sacking, blames poor results against India and Australia.
Karthik further noted, “With Andy Flower, he would obviously already have a pre-signed contract with RCB, which would mean that he would miss parts of all those. How would it be? Will it be okay for England in the preparation for the Ashes if they don't have a coach for one or two Test matches? I heard there's a Test match against Bangladesh in May next year. And if Andy were doing RCB, that could be a challenge as well.”
Dinesh Karthik calls Andy Flower one of the world's best coaches
He signed off by saying, “Is he good? He's probably one of the best in the world. Will he have time? That's the question. I would be very surprised if the answer were a yes. But if they found a good partnership together with all of it being settled, why not?”
