The resignation of Jos Buttler has left an important vacuum.
England had a disappointing exit in the recent Champions Trophy 2025, where they faced an early way out after losing all their three games in the group stage. After the chambólico campaign, the captain of the White Ball of England, Jos Buttler, also decided to resign.
While Harry Brook was expected to be the favorite for the role, the managing director of the Cricket Board of England and Wales (ECB), Rob Key, hinted that the star withdrawn from the white ball, Ben Stokes, could be in dispute.
Now, in a recent conversation with BBC Radio 5, Key has revealed that Stokes was approved.
Rob Key said: “I have not really talked to him about it, to be honest. ‘Ok’, it’s not that he has offered that, but they are the type of conversations we have. “
