Ashley Giles can make England world-beaters - Graeme Swann - chairman - 03-04-2014 Graeme Swann has backed Ashley Giles to become England's permanent head coach and believes the team can become "world-beaters" again. Swann said Giles had been unfairly tarnished by poor results following the Ashes whitewash in Australia. The retired off-spinner added he expected England to move "onwards and upwards" after that disastrous tour. "England have got enough talent and enough great players in county cricket to have a world-beating team," he said. Re: Ashley Giles can make England world-beaters - Graeme Swann - Kyle - 03-05-2014 Seriously, is Swanneh taking the piss here? IDK about his coaching skills to be fair, but why would he be so good to make England "world beaters" back again? Re: Ashley Giles can make England world-beaters - Graeme Swann - Mail - 03-05-2014 Kylester, Why would anyone be so good to make England World beaters? In Gilo's case he ahs had a very good track record at Warwicks, has a good understanding of the dynamics in an emerging and successful team, as he was. However I do not like traitors so to one minute say Pietersen was their Million Pound asset and then the next to support his sacking does not work for me. For that reason I think he is not the best candidate. I would have an Englishman as Coach but as we are more peripatetic these days I would like to give Kirsten a shot. After all half out team are Saffers and we can have our national team speaking Afikaans..
