McCullum to Lead England in All Formats

Brendon McCullum, England's Test head coach since 2022, will take over as the head coach for all three formats of the national team starting January 2025, extending his contract until 2027. McCullum's aggressive 'Bazball' approach has led to significant success in Test cricket, and he aims to bring the same energy to the white-ball teams. He replaces Matthew Mott, who was dismissed following disappointing performances in recent World Cups. Marcus Trescothick will serve as interim white-ball head coach until McCullum's official start. Ben Stokes and other cricket experts have lauded this decision, expressing confidence in McCullum's capability to unify and elevate the performance of England's cricket teams across all formats.
