After Jos Buttler's Decision To Step Down, Nasser Hussain Backs Young Star As New England Captain

Former England captain Nasser Hussain has thrown his support behind Harry Brook to take over as England's next white-ball captain, urging the team to make the transition “as soon as possible.” Hussain's comments come in the wake of Jos Buttler stepping down from the role following England's disappointing group-stage exit in the ICC Champions Trophy. Buttler, who succeeded Eoin Morgan in 2022, endured a tough stint as skipper, losing 22 of his 34 ODIs as permanent captain. England's struggle in white-ball cricket have been evident, with their early exit in the Champions Trophy following a group-stage elimination in the 2023 ODI World Cup and an unconvincing semi-final run in the 2024 T20 World Cup.

Afghanistan Could Win An ICC Tournament In Next Decade: Dale Steyn

If He Comes To Bowl, What Are You Going To Look At? Says Ian Healy On Matthew Kuhnemann's Bowling Action Cleared By ICC

His action has now been deemed to be legal, and the left-arm spinner will continue to bowl in international cricket. "If you go to the cricket next year and Kuhnemann comes on to bowl, what are you going to look at? That's the bit that sticks, everyone will be looking now," Healy said on SENQ Breakfast.
