Brandon McCullum is the new white-ball coach for England.

The cricketing scene in England is about to change dramatically with the appointment of Brandon McCullum as their new white-ball coach. The choice was made in response to former head coach Matthew Mott’s resignation. In addition to his new position, McCullum will continue to coach England’s Test team, a position he has had since 2022.

Over the past two years, McCullum has played a significant role in determining England’s strategy for playing Test cricket. During his tenure, the squad has performed better in the longest format of the game because to his audacious and attacking tactics.

Since England is set to tour India in January of next year, McCullum will be leading the white-ball team. Additionally, he has extended his ECB contract till the end of 2027. Marcus Trescothick will remain England’s temporary white-ball coach for the time being.

Rob Key, Managing Director of England Men’s Cricket, stated: “For the last two years, constant clashes between formats have made it challenging for the white-ball environment; fortunately, these are easing starting from January.”

“We’re convinced that this restructuring will bring out the best in our players and coaching staff, and the timing of the schedule (from January) will allow him to dedicate the necessary focus to both roles.”

“I’m thrilled that Brendon has decided to work with England in both roles going forward. I think it is tremendously fortunate for us that a coach of his caliber is willing to dedicate himself fully to English cricket.”

McCullum is eager to take on the job and is full of energy.

“I’m thrilled to expand my job to include the white-ball sides. I’ve had a great time working with the Test team. I’m excited to work closely with Jos [Buttler] and the team to build on the solid foundations that are already in place, and I’m ready to take on this new task,” McCullum stated upon his appointment.
