Stokes Considered for England White-Ball Captaincy

England's cricket management, led by Rob Key, is considering Ben Stokes as a potential replacement for Jos Buttler as the captain of the white-ball teams following a disappointing Champions Trophy campaign. Key highlighted Stokes' exceptional leadership skills, emphasizing his tactical acumen and ability to inspire players under pressure, traits demonstrated during his tenure as Test captain. However, concerns about Stokes' workload and injury history, particularly his recent hamstring surgery, are being carefully weighed. The management is also evaluating other candidates like Harry Brook, Phil Salt, and Liam Livingstone, and exploring the possibility of having separate captains for the ODI and T20 formats. Key expressed the need for a thoughtful decision-making process to ensure the best leadership for the team's future, with the aim of reviving England's white-ball cricket fortunes.
