England’s main coach Brendon McCullum said that the team could have separated captains for hatred and T20is after the resignation of Jos Buttler as a white ball pattern. The 43 -year -old has not ruled out the possibility of carrying a player from outside the current squad to assume the leadership role.
England is looking for a new white ball captain after its disappointing campaign at the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, where they were eliminated in the group stage. Prior to the final game in group phase, Jos Buttler announced his decision to leave himself as captain of the teams Odi and T20I.
If they are two, it’s also fantastic: Brendon McCullum
Brendon McCullum said that the team can have the same Captain for Hate and T20is or separate leaders for each format. He stated that it would take a few weeks to value the strategy to return to the team.
“If he is the same person, great, if they are two, he is also fantastic. Give me a couple of weeks to work and go out again,” said Brendon McCullum.
Give us a couple of weeks to work -all -Brendon McCullum
Brendon McCullum stated that England would take a few weeks to evaluate his options before making a decision on the new white ball captain.
“Give us a couple of weeks to solve everything, a kind of digesting what happened during the month and a half past, and then we will begin to trace and plan our way forward.”
England will play its next series of white balls against the western Indies, from May 29. The T20 World Cup will take place in India and Sri Lanka in early 2026. Harry Brook is the leader to replace Jos Buttler as white dance captain. Brook was Vice-Capitan and also led the team in the absence of Buttler.
However, it is common in the tests, which will raise workload problems. The Cricket Board of England and Wales (ECB) can name Brook as Captain Hate while selecting a different leader for T20is, which would mean three separate captains. All-Rounder Ben Stokes leads the test team.
We are in a scenario of Cricket Landscape – Chris Woakes
Chris Woakes of England, Chris Woakes, said that having separated captains for hatred and T20is could definitely function in the modern cricket. Woakes said the formats are very different, with hatred that requires a strategic approach closer to the test cricket instead of being only an extended version of T20S.
“I could certainly work, I don’t see why not. I feel we are in a scenario of the Cricket Landscape where it can be the way to go,” Woakes said in the special podcast of the test match.
“The formats are very different. Extremely different. 50-Over is not just a widespread T20 game. It’s not, there are more games inside the game, which is closer to trying the cricket and being able to do things for longer.”
Liam Livingstone and Phil Salt have led the national team last year. Sam Billings, who guided the invincible ovalables to victory on the hundred last year, has not participated in England since November 2022. James Vince, last seen in the international cricket in March 2023, has experience in Hampshire.
