Heather Knight has been sacked as England captain following her side’s 16-0 loss in Australia.
Knight has been in the position since 2016, but has overseen a difficult winter, with a series win in South Africa sandwiched between a disappointing T20 World Cup campaign and a tumultuous Ashes tour of Australia.
On Friday, head coach Jon Lewis was also removed from his position after a review of the tour led by England director of women’s cricket Clare Connor.
Knight, 34, led the side in eight Tests, 94 one-day internationals and 96 T20s, with 134 wins from her 199 matches in charge.
