Michael Kasprowicz got up at 2am on Tuesday to lap up Australia’s stirring Ashes Test win at Edgbaston, and he wants to help Australians win at another national sport in his new role as head of Intellihub’s Pooled arm: managing their pool pumps.

Kasprowicz – there at the end of another Edgbaston nail biter that went the wrong way in 2005 as a bowler and lower order bat – has the task of convincing more of Australia’s million pool owners to hand the management of their equipment over.
