Former fast bowler Steve Harmison expresses pain, explains why he will not be accepted as selector

Former England fast bowler Steve Harmison has revealed his interest in becoming the team’s new selector. But at the same time, he fears that relentlessly criticizing Hundred will hurt his chances of playing the coveted role.

Steve Harmison said in the Vonney & Tuffers Cricket Club podcast, “I’ve applied for it once before. But the way I’m criticizing the ECB, I’m not sure I’ll be welcomed. I haven’t applied for it yet. Haven’t applied, but it’s something that worries me.”

Steve Harmison firmly believes his style of thinking fits the new rule of England

Steve Harmison, 43, firmly believes his style of thinking fits the new England regime, which has won six out of seven Tests in this year’s home season. “One of my best teammates in the match is Rob Key. I have a lot of respect for what he has done and I would love to work with this team,” he said.

He further added, “Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler, Brendon McCullum are doing better for their respective teams. The way they are playing, they are trying to save Test match cricket. I will try and help. Criticizing the ECB without being prepared for it. I am ready to try and help shape the future of English cricket.”

“Had it been under the previous regime, I might not have applied because I don’t think so,” he said. Steve Harmison, who became the top-order Test bowler in 2004, said that whoever is made a selector should work in the background to help the coach and captain in decision making.
