Justin Langer 'open to England head coach role if offered the job'

Justin Langer would reportedly be open to talking to the ECB about taking over as head coach of the England men's cricket team. 

The Test and limited-overs sides are currently without a full-time coach after Chris Silverwood was sacked following a 4-0 loss in the Ashes against Australia, coached by Langer himself before he resigned shortly afterwards. 

Paul Collingwood took charge as interim head coach in the West Indies - with England falling to a 1-0 series loss at the weekend - but The Telegraph report that former Aussie opening batsman Langer would be open to discussions on the role. 

The report details that job of head coach would be filled when the ECB appoint a new director of cricket - the current interim in charge of that role is Andrew Strauss. 

Langer resigned as Australia head coach after senior players rallied against him, despite leading his country to T20 World Cup glory in November as well as the Ashes triumph.
