Matthew Mott has called for patience after England ended a difficult summer without a home white-ball series win but has warned his underperforming stars places are up for grabs ahead of this winter’s T20 World Cup.
A humbling 90-run loss to South Africa at the Ageas Bowl on Sunday, after being dismissed for 101 in response to the tourists’ 191 for five, saw the hosts conclude a challenging month on and off the field with a new low.
It was England’s joint-heaviest defeat in T20 cricket, which is far from ideal preparation ahead of October’s World Cup in Australia.
New white ball head coach Mott has seen Eoin Morgan depart the international scene in shock fashion this summer and watched on as Ben Stokes retired from ODIs.
