London, Sep 13 (Ians) England men’s managing director Rob Key has lavished rich praise on Test captain Ben Stokes and head coach Brendon McCullum for turning around the fortunes of the country’s Test team in this year’s home summer, saying the pair have that “bit of magic”.
After winning just one Test in their last 17 matches, Joe Root and Chris Silverwood stepped down as captain and coach respectively. Key, who succeeded Ashley Giles as England Men’s managing director, then got McCullum and Stokes on board as head coach and captain respectively.
Under the duo, England have won six out of seven matches in this year’s home summer, starting with a 3-0 sweep of World Test Champions New Zealand, followed by a record-breaking chase of 378 to beat India by seven wickets and came back from behind to defeat the Proteas 2-1.

"You might wanna take a few steps back." Get a load of this! The Archivist is a "spaghetti western meets dystopian sci-fi" throwback made by filmmaker Eric Hand, and we have an official trailer for it that looks awesome. In the year 2070, Caulder Benson is a government archivist officer charged by an increasingly invasive and restrictive government to destroy all elements and remnants of his society's self-indulgent and avaricious past. Featuring "strong influences from Sergio Leone, Roger Corman, Monte Hellman films and a soundtrack inspired by Ennio Morricone and 70's rock." The film was shot on 35mm Technsicope, with the same cameras as The Good, The Bad & The Ugly. Starring Eric Hand, Dale Shumate, Jennifer Giles, & Butch Thompson. It actually seems like this was made in the 70s, which isn't easy to pull off. Take a look. Here's the first official trailer (+ poster) for Eric Hand's The Archivist, from YouTube (via Quiet Earth): "Justice,...
