LONDON : England test captain Ben Stokes has to be on a list of possible replacements for Jos Buttler, who resigned last week as limited-overs captain, director of men's cricket Rob Key said on Thursday.
England's white-ball captain Jos Buttler joined test skipper Ben Stokes in extending his central contract, the England and Wales Cricket Board announced on Wednesday.
Olly Stone is set to return home from England's tour of Pakistan on Wednesday for his wedding this weekend, making it unlikely he will be available for the second Test in Multan. Stone took seven wickets in two Tests against Sri Lanka at the end of the English summer, marking his first appearances in the format in three years. Brydon Carse was chosen as England's high-pace option for the first Test in Multan, allowing Stone to depart earlier than initially planned.
Dawid Malan, a former top-ranked batter in T20 internationals, has retired from international cricket, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said on Wednesday.
Kumar Sangakkara has said it would be an "exciting prospect" to coach England in limited-overs cricket, but stressed he has yet to receive a formal approach regarding the role. The England and Wales Cricket Board are on the lookout for a new white-ball boss after they effectively sacked Matthew Mott on Tuesday, with the Australian having overseen two lacklustre title-defences at both the 2023 50-over World Cup and June's T20 World Cup. Former England batsman Marcus Trescothick has been placed in caretaker charge for September's one-day international and T20 series at home to arch-rivals Australia while Rob Key, the managing director of England men's cricket, goes in search of Mott's permanent replacement.
LONDON : England white-ball head coach Matthew Mott has stepped down following their Twenty20 World Cup semi-final exit against eventual champions India last month, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) announced on Tuesday.
Matthew Mott on Tuesday stepped down as England's white ball coach following their recent failure to defend the T20 World Cup title, and he has been replaced with former opener Marcus Trescothick on an interim basis. England were knocked out of the ICC showpiece by eventual champions India in the semifinal, while the Three Lions were also unsuccessful in holding on to their 50-over World Cup trophy last year. However, Mott's tenure began with England bagging their second T20 World Cup in 2022 in Australia, beating Pakistan in the final.
