After being rejected for ODI and T20 tours of the Caribbean, Dawid Malan's coaching career is over, with the 36-year-old intending to begin his coaching career with Yorkshire

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 3, 2024
Dawid Malan is concerned that his England career is coming to an end and he is now planning for his post-playing future by helping to coach at Yorkshire. In India's hysterical 50-over-World Cup campaign last fall, the 36-year-old was England's best run scorer. However, Malan was then booked for the upcoming ODI and T20 tours of the Caribbean, despite being offered a new one-year ECB deal.

Why Ben Stokes is the greatest cricketer in the United Kingdom's 16th Centuurion - the complete showman - and what distinguishes him from the greats

www.dailymail.co.uk, February 13, 2024
NASSER HUSSAIN: To join the list of England cricketers who have won 100 Test caps, you'll need to be one of the all-time greats, and the journey requires many aspects: patience, knowledge, and mental toughness among them. You have to be a complete participant, reaching a world-class qualification and maintaining it while dealing with the mental and physical challenges of competing at international level. All the while away from home and away from family. By definition, being on this list indicates that you have made a significant contribution to English cricket. But Ben Stokes, the 16th Englishman on the incredible list, has accomplished the near-impossible challenge of ticking every single box as an international cricketer.

After cricket fans slammed their stripped-back day one coverage as "atrocious," TNT Sports line up Sir Alastair Cook and Steven Finn as pundits for England's second Test in India

www.dailymail.co.uk, January 25, 2024
MATT HUGHES: After being chastised for their spartan coverage of day one in Hyderabad, former England captain Sir Alastair Cook and fast bowler Steven Finn are likely to lead a beefed-up TNT Sports' production of the second Test in Visakhapatnam next week. With TNT's home nationals only signing a five-year contract last week, there was insufficient time to build a punditry team before the series's launch, leaving host Matt Floyd to talk in a broadcaster without a single studio presence. For the remainder of the series, TNT will have a broadcast feed of the Indian commentary team, including former England captains Kevin Pietersen and Eoin Morgan, but will also have their own pundits from the second Test onwards.

RICHARD GIBSON: When Jos Buttler's side tries to bounce back and save the series after string defeats, England must imitate the West Indies to reclaim global prominence

www.dailymail.co.uk, December 15, 2023
RIICHARD GIBSON OF GRENADA: "You win or you learn," ex England captain Eoin Morgan used during England's white-ball ascent, and his successors should unquestionably heed the lessons taught to them by the West Indies. Not only how to get back to a game in a 2-0 tie, but also a blueprint for defending their world title in six months' time in the Caribbean and United States.

England captain Jos Buttler is back to end his batting slump as England tries to prevent a 12th ODI loss against the West Indies this year

www.dailymail.co.uk, December 5, 2023
Harry Brook is assisting Jos Buttler in escaping his winter batting slump and preventing another crisis for England's one-day side. Buttler's side returned to the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium on Wednesday in the knowledge that defeat would not only mean they lost the series to opponents who did not qualify for the World Cup this year, but also took their number of losses for 2023 to 12, as many as they suffered in the previous three years combined, despite failing to defend a 326-run target in the first match of this season. West Indies' four-wicket victory last Sunday was his 17th setback in 29 completed matches since Buttler took the armband from Eoin Morgan 18 months ago, while another failure to reach double figures raised his tally of runs to 78 in eight innings.

In an ODI loss to West Indies, England captain Jos Buttler seemed nothing like his old self — his out of character and timidity brought back painful memories of the World Cup

www.dailymail.co.uk, December 3, 2023
Despite the fact that it was Antigua rather than Ahmedabad, Jos Buttler did not look exactly like him in England's first game of the new age as he screamed about for 13 runs before eschewing a reverse sweep to naught. The first one-day international of what has become a new white-ball franchise began after England's World Cup capitulation that was a case of more of the same for a captain who said before this game that his leadership would not be decided by two months in India. Buttler, of course, had to withdraw after the World Cup and concentrate on batting that made him the best white-ball player in England history.

Exclusive: Sky Sports will make broadcasting history this week by broadcasting a Hindi commentary for the Cricket World Cup semi-finals and final on their main channels this week. India's last-four clash against New Zealand on Saturday will be shown in what is believed to be the first time a major UK broadcaster has reported a sporting event in another language.

NASSER HUSSAIN: England is guilty of standing around while their rivals cruised past them at the World Cup... but Jos Buttler and Matthew Mott are right to do things right - the United Kingdom is a HUSSAIN

www.dailymail.co.uk, November 12, 2023
Following a disappointing defense of their 50-over-World Cup triumph in India, England lost six of their nine group games. They looked undercooked and complacent, making a string of poor decisions when they were unable to play to anywhere near their best. After England's World Cup came to an end in Kolkata, Wisden Editor LAWRENCE BOOTH talked to Mail Sport's NASSER HUSSAIN.

England was set to turn on the 50-over fireworks like flicking a switch, but a string of failures left them red-faced in a poor Cricket World Cup title defense

www.dailymail.co.uk, November 12, 2023
BOOTH OF LAKOLKATA: It was the decision that captured England's disconnection with reality, the low point of a World Cup that has become a quick case study in how to mess up. In the afternoon of October 21, Mumbai was sweltering in heat at 40 degrees rather than 30. Rob Key, the team's highly air-conditioned Taj Mahal hotel, began to sweat, despite its sumptuous air-conditioned home. Both literal and metaphorical, the perforation would be both literal and metaphorical.

PATEL PARTIES: After being knocked out by Australia, England's disastrous World Cup defense remains a distant memory, with India emerging as the favourites for the title

www.dailymail.co.uk, November 4, 2023
Jos Buttler used the words disgust, frustrating, and despair no fewer than nine times in his seven-minute post-match press conference in Ahmedabad, after England was officially knocked out of the World Cup. Frustration with virtually every part of England's utterly abysmal World Cup defense and, in particular, his own batting. When things aren't going for you, even the simple things seem tough and the England captain's dismissal against Australia, on an evening when England's World Cup reign came to an end, summed up the story of his miserable tournament,

In the final weeks of this horrific World Cup campaign, England could be playing for the future of head coach Matthew Mott; he has credit in the bank, but it is quickly disappearing

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 30, 2023
LAWRENCE BOOTH IN AHMEDABAD: England is entering the final fortnight of their World Cup campaign, but perhaps too many for pride and Champions Trophy qualification, but not so much for head coach Matthew Mott's future. Former captain Eoin Morgan's remarks before Sunday's 100-run mauling by India in Lucknow were misinterpreted as a line in England's dressing-room, which culminated in Mott's insistence after the match that he was presiding over a happy camp. Morgan's dismay came from England's departure from the kind of structured game plan that made his own 50-over-over team win the World Cup four years ago, and the Test team has since rebuilt Morgan's fortunes under Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum.

NASSER HUSSAIN: This group of players is at the bottom of the pile; how can an England team with all the talent be put into such a situation?

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 29, 2023
IN LUCKNOW: When I look at the World Cup table, it reminds me of Duncan Fletcher's very first thing when we first arrived as captain and coach of England. Duncan said, "You may not be the best squad in the world, but you certainly not the worst," Duncan said, which is how we were rated in Test cricket at the time. Now I'm thinking, 'okay, India was always going to be difficult to beat in their home World Cup, but there is no way England should finish last with five losses from six games.'

Despite the dismal ODI World Cup defense of England, Matthew Mott said that the team has no issues in their camp, and that the reasons go deeper than a lack of fitness

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 29, 2023
LUCKNOW: Matthew Mott, the head coach, denied there were problems in the England camp after former captain Eoin Morgan said their World Cup woes were down to something more than a collective loss of strength. England suffered to an unprecedented fifth defeat in Lucknow, losing by 100 runs to India.' I don't think that at all.' Any one inside would say that we're an extremely tight unit, despite our findings, to the point where Dave Humphreys, the former rugby international, was chastised how tight the team is when he arrived in for a week to see us with the latest findings.'

LAWRENCE BOOTH: England should be fearless and bloody against champions-elect India in semi-finals

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 28, 2023
LAWRENCE BOOTH IN LUCKNOW: England take on world champions-elect India today faced with a decision that may reveal just how frazzled they are Try to save face in a World Cup that has already passed them by, or use the game as the starting point for the 2027 tournament in southern Africa? With qualification for the semi-finals now dependent on a string of events, the braver call would have to look beyond the last few weeks' disaster and the blood of the 20somethings who are likely to be around in four years' time. And, of course, the two scenarios cannot be mutually exclusive. England's entire XI was on the wrong side of 30 against Sri Lanka in Bangalore, where they suffered arguably the worst of their four losses in this tournament.

PaUL NEWMAN: Eoin Morgan was a brilliant king, but Jos Buttler didn't quite match up... The World Cup's demise of an age has brought an end to an epoch

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 27, 2023
PAUL NEWMAN: Nobody expected England's best white-ball performance, the team that has set such high hopes since the 2015 nadir, to capitulate as this. Nobody expected captain Jos Buttler and coach Matthew Mott, who, lest we forget, won the T20 title in Australia a year ago, to be in charge of the worst team in this underwhelming World Cup, with the exception of the Netherlands. We will not know for sure until England meets the Dutch in Amsterdam.

NASSER HUSSAIN: England's lack of 50-over-chest cricket is not to blame for the World Cup's dissatisfaction; the participants are to blame, and it seems that an epoch has come to an end

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 26, 2023
NASSER HUSSAIN IN BANGALORE: I have never seen this England team play so poorly in any back-to-back matches as they have against South Africa in Mumbai and now against Sri Lanka. They changed their tactics and teams after winning the toss but, in the end, the most important is having players at the top of their games, but what's really important is having them at the top of their games. And if you walked into the England squad after this and asked the England players, hand on heart, only one or two could possibly say yes.

Fans slammed 'AWFUL' and 'EMBARRASSING' England in yet another dismal loss for Jos Buttler's team

Following yet another poor showing with the bat that saw them lose by eight wickets to Sri Lanka at the Cricket World Cup, England's cricketers have been chastised on social media by supporters. Jos Buttler's men arrived in their fifth game in the tournament, knowing they needed a victory after losing three of their previous four games, but they fell short and now look likely to leave the group stage. England flopped in Bangalore after a dramatic batting performance against Afghanistan and South Africa, defeating them out for 156 runs.

As England establishes a new one-day legacy under new captain and head coach Matthew Mott, Joe Root believes England has let down Jos Buttler at the World Cup

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 23, 2023
ACTION BOOTH IN BANGALORE: Joe Root believes England's one-day squad let down captain Jos Buttler at the World Cup and insisted that comparisons with Eoin Morgan are "unfair." England almost certainly has to win their next five group games, beginning with Sri Lanka on Thursday, if they are to advance to the semi-finals, and have a chance to defend the award that was won by Lord's four years ago. Roots has called on patience as England, who have lost three of their first four games in India, attempts to establish a new one-day legacy under captaincy of Buttler and head coach Matthew Mott.

After a humiliating loss to Afghanistan, NASSER HUSSAIN: Ben Stokes must return to England... every World Cup game is like a final

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 15, 2023
NASSER HUSSAIN: One of my pre-tournament picks was that Afghanistan would cause an upset at this World Cup; I just didn't expect it to be England on the receiving end. There is no room for Jos Buttler's crew anymore. They'll have to win every match from here on if they want to keep their title in their own hands. They may have to react as they did when they lost to Ireland in the Twenty20 World Cup last year or were forced to win in the 2019 World Cup midway through the group stage. Now is all about endurance.

In the midst of safety fears ahead of their Bangladesh match, Jos Buttler slams 'poor' Dharamshala outfield, as England captain Simon Coveney warns that the surface could influence the 'integrity' of the critical World Cup fixture

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 9, 2023
bOOTH IN DHARAMSHALA: On the eve of his team's crucial World Cup game against Bangladesh, Jos Buttler has characterized Dharamshala's sandy outfield as "poor," and has wondered if it would influence a match England must win after losing to New Zealand's thrashing. After Saturday's match between Bangladesh and Afghanistan, ICC officials rated the outfield 'average,' a decision with which Buttler and his staff vehemently disagreed. Buttler responded, 'Yeah, a few.' When asked if he had any questions about a surface that had been treated with sand after floods and a fungal infestation, he replied: 'Yes, a few.' It's bad, I suppose. If you're thinking about being cautious divers, it goes against everything you want to be as a team.

Despite a cloud of injury surrounding England's World Cup chances against New Zealand on Thursday, Jos Buttler remains optimistic about the team's World Cup hopes, despite the injury cloud surrounding talisman Ben Stokes' opener against New Zealand on Thursday

AHMEDABAD (LA): Despite a new injury cloud descending on Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler goes into Wednesday's World Cup opener against New Zealand aspires of 'creating something new' as England looks to win their third global trophy in four years. During an evening training session at Narendra Modi Stadium on Wednesday, England's star all-rounder cut a peripheral figure, despite having a niggle in his left hip that could prevent him from participating in the competition curtain-raiser and raises concerns about his readiness for the remainder of his title defense. With each team facing nine group matches each before the semi-finals begin on November 15, Buttler said that now was "not the time to take big risks on someone at the start of the tournament." Harry Brook, a late replacement for the injured Jason Roy, is expected to make his World Cup debut this weekend.

When is England vs New Zealand at the Cricket World Cup and how can you watch it?As Jos Buttler's men begin the defence of their title following their win in 2019

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 4, 2023
In the first game of the Cricket World Cup in India, England and New Zealand will go head-to-head. After winning their first-ever Cricket World Cup against the Kiwis in the most exciting match the sport has ever seen, Jos Butler's men enter the tournament as champions. Eoin Morgan's team reached the final with the Kiwis on 241 runs per pair, but then they both scored 15 runs in the ostensibly tie-breaking super-over. Fans held their breaths as New Zealand's batsman Martin Guptill batted out in a bid to score a winning 16th run, but England wicketkeeper Jos Buttler managed to gather the ball and run him out by just inches. It meant that the home team dominated because they crossed more boundaries, turning fans of Lord's into delirium.

During a recent practice session, Jos Buttler realized that the England team had rewritten the white-ball rulebook and was perhaps coming to the end of his journey. If you're fit and doing well,' the England captain, who is aiming to defend the 50-over World Cup, admitted that age can be a bit of an irrelevance.' But we are certainly older than we were.' Before playing New Zealand, we did a youth vs. old fielding drill at Cardiff, and those aged 32 stayed in the youth team.' Well, it does mean we're on the older side as a team. However, we have a lot of knowledge and we've played a lot of cricket together. We've also played a lot in India for England or in the IPL, which means there will be less surprises.'
