Trescothick Backs Buttler As England’s White-ball Captain Ahead Of Australia Series

Though Matthew Mott: Marcus Trescothick, England’s interim white-ball head coach, has backed Jos Buttler to come good as the white-ball captain ahead of the side’s matches against Australia starting next month.

Though Matthew Mott lost his head coach job as England failed to retain their T20 and ODI World Cup titles, Buttler was saved from the axe in the leadership role. He will now team up with Trescothick to lead a new-look England in the white-ball series against Australia from September 4-29.

"I think he is. The attributes he shows behind the scenes are really important to lead this team. Me coming in is just to try to enhance that as much as possible, to make him feel like this is the way the group is going to go, the way the team is going to evolve in a different way to get the most out of him as captain."
