Southee Joins England Men’s Teams As Specialist Skills Consultant On Short-term Basis
Wales Cricket Board: England have added former New Zealand fast-bowler Tim Southee to their men’s team coaching staff as a specialist skills consultant on a short-term basis across all formats.
Southee, 36, concluded his Test career in December 2024 as New Zealand’s all-time leading wicket-taker with 776 scalps across all three formats. He will now support England’s bowlers through to the conclusion of the five-Test series against India before playing for the Birmingham Phoenix in The Hundred, which begins four days after the end of the final Test against India at The Oval.
“With his vast experience of playing in a wide range of conditions around the world and across all formats, he brings valuable insight and knowledge to the players,” said the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) in a statement on Thursday.
