No England captaincy ambitions 'soon', says Brook
Harry Brook says he has no England captaincy ambitions “any time soon”, amid speculation over the future of the white-ball leadership.
Managing director Rob Key has not given any assurances on the positions of white-ball captain Jos Buttler and coach Matthew Mott after England surrendered both the 50-over and T20 World Cups.
Batter Brook, 25, would be a candidate to become skipper if England make a change and is due to lead Northern Superchargers in The Hundred.
"This is my first captaincy role with the Superchargers," he said. "We'll see how that goes and then maybe I'll have a different answer in a couple of months.
"I don't see anything happening any time soon, so I'll just stay in the moment and focus on Test cricket."
Brook will join up with the Superchargers following England's third and final Test against West Indies at Edgbaston, which begins on Friday. The home side are looking to complete a 3-0 clean sweep.
He was part of the England squad for the 50-over World Cup last year, when a horrible campaign included only three wins in nine matches.
