England head coach Brendon McCullum said the team will head into the Ashes series against Australia without fear of defeat and he sees no reason to rein in their high-risk, high-reward 'Bazball' approach that has proven so successful over the last year.
"Who knows if we are going to win this summer but we're going to go into it with the right attitude, the right environment, and the right team which believes it's got a chance," McCullum told British media on Monday. "If we do play how we want to play, we give ourselves the best opportunity and we've got the talent to put world-class teams under pressure."
McCullum said fast bowlers James Anderson and Ollie Robinson would miss the Ireland test due to injury but will be fit for the Ashes opener.
