Brendon McCullum is dismissed as coach of England’s men’s Test cricket team after four years in the role, according to multiple outlets. The decision is reported as following England’s recent struggles, including a series loss to New Zealand in which the team suffers its first home series defeat of three Tests or more since 2012. While McCullum no longer leads the Test side, he continues to coach England’s limited-overs teams. Sources say he will remain in charge of the country’s T20 and ODI teams. The reports present the change as a coaching reassignment rather than a complete separation from the national setup, with McCullum retaining responsibility for the formats outside Tests. The announcements come after a broader review of the coaching and team direction following the most recent Test series results.
