Stephen Fleming to commentate India-New Zealand series while serving as England Test coach

England's new red-ball coach Stephen Fleming will commentate for Sky New Zealand on India's upcoming tour. The ECB has given the green light for him to call the five T20Is, five ODIs and two Tests that begin in Christchurch on October 22.

Four years ago Brendon McCullum had to drop his SENZ Breakfast Show gig when he took the same job. Fleming's deal carries no such clause. He left Chennai Super Kings after 17 seasons and replaced McCullum in July.

He flew into England on Monday for a ten-day visit to meet Joe Root and ECB managing director Rob Key. The three-Test tour of South Africa in December-January is first on the agenda.
