John Buchanan says he will not betray Australia's secrets to England

John Buchanan says he is not giving away Australia's secrets by acting as a consultant for England during the Ashes series. Buchanan, who coached the Australian team between 1999 and 2007, said: "I am Australian, and cherish the part I played in the ongoing development of Australian cricket. "Just as I am a Queenslander, and so would never be a full-time coach of another domestic team. This may be misguided loyalty. However, I am loyal to my principles of always assisting those organisations or individuals who seek to be better."
