At just 21 years old, Jacob Bethell has been named captain of England’s men’s T20 side for their upcoming series in Ireland (17–21 September), which would make him the youngest-ever to lead the team—surpassing a record dating back 136 years held by Monty Bowden.
Bethell, already seen as a white-ball regular, earns this leadership opportunity while senior players such as Harry Brook rest following the South Africa series.
Assistant Marcus Trescothick will assume head coach responsibilities in Ireland in the absence of Brendon McCullum.
The appointment highlights Bethell’s rapid rise and the trust placed in his leadership at a young age.
