Darren Lehmann says he has not been contacted about becoming England’s next men’s Test head coach, but he endorses fellow Australian Justin Langer for the vacant role. Lehmann’s comments, reported by Sky Sports and repeated by NDTV, indicate that while he is not in discussions for the position, he believes Langer would be a strong fit for the job in England. The reports describe Langer as the preferred candidate based on Lehmann’s view that he would “be really good” in an England Test coaching role. The articles also frame the development around the ongoing search for a successor to the current vacancy, with England seeking a Test head coach. Overall, the coverage focuses on Lehmann’s stance—confirming the lack of direct contact for himself—and his public support for Langer, rather than providing details about formal interviews, a shortlist, or timelines for England’s decision.
