Two years ago, ECB chairman Giles Clarke was widely criticised for the Stanford debacle, but now with the England team have a fantastic run, he is as secure as ever in the job and is expected to be elected unopposed for a third term next year. Paul Newman interviews Clarke in the Daily Mail.
"We will not stay at No 1 unless the conveyor belt is really strong. When one goes about the counties I find it fascinating to hear about the quality of the 16-, 17- and 18-year-olds coming through.
"We have shown what we can do if there is a shared focus across the country. I’m hugely encouraged England is now the place everybody is looking at to know what to do. For so long all we used to hear about was the Australian way."
