Moises Henriques, a former Australia all-rounder, is set to lead Portugal in their bid to qualify for the T20 World Cup. The appointment comes as Portugal aims to reach the tournament for the first time.
Henriques has international experience across formats, having played four Tests, 16 ODIs and 24 T20Is for Australia. One report also notes a connection to Cristiano Ronaldo, though details of how this relates to the team are not elaborated.
Portugal’s campaign focuses on securing qualification, with Henriques bringing experience at the highest level of limited-overs cricket. The outlets framing this announcement primarily center on his playing history and his role as captain, with limited additional information about coaching staff or Portugal’s broader squad changes.
