England Selector Luke Wright To Step Down After 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup
T20 World Cup: Luke Wright will step down from his role as England men’s selector after the upcoming T20 World Cup, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said on Thursday.
Wright, who has served in the position for three years after assuming charge in November 2022, informed the board of his decision made with an eye to having less travel and spending more time with his young family. His departure comes in the wake of England’s 4-1 Ashes defeat in Australia.
“It has been a true honour and privilege to serve as an England Men’s Selector over the past three years. I have fully immersed myself in the role and am incredibly proud of the players we have brought through. “The role demands significant travel and time away from home, and with a young family, the time feels right to pass the baton on to the next person. I now look forward with real interest and enthusiasm to whatever cricketing roles the future may hold.
