New Zealander Stephen Fleming, England's new Test coach, has suggested the national team should be led by someone from England. Fleming, who will take charge of his first series in South Africa in December, is the latest overseas coach to lead the England men's team. Since 1999, only two Englishmen - Peter Moores (twice) and Chris Silverwood - have been in charge of the Test side, while Ashley Giles had a spell as white-ball coach. In the same time period England have been led by two Zimbabweans, in Duncan Fletcher and Andy Flower, and Australian Trevor Bayliss - while Fleming has succeeded his fellow Kiwi Brendon McCullum, who remains white-ball coach. Another Australian, Matthew Mott, also had time in charge of the white-ball team. Fleming's backroom team, announced last week, is heavily weighted towards homegrown coaches. Former England opener Marcus Trescothick, who was in interim charge of the Test team earlier this year, is joined by ex-England wicketkeeper James Foster and former spinner Richard Dawson. Jonathan Trott, an Ashes winner with England, is about to begin a spell in charge of England Lions.

The Vancouver Canucks defenceman may share a name with one of the Canucks’ biggest stars, but he’s imposing his own identity on the ice early in the 2026-27 season. Call him “Junior,” “D-Petey,” or even “Ser Duncan the Tall” — either way, opposing players have no choice but to learn his name, typically by looking at the back of his jersey after he’s crushed them into the boards.
