Brendon McCullum, left, was appointed by Rob Key in 2022
Head coach Brendon McCullum and director of cricket Rob Key will be given the chance to stay on and show they can improve the England set-up, despite the Ashes defeat in Australia.
McCullum and Key have come under scrutiny after England surrendered the series with losses in the opening three Tests of the best-of-five series.
Both men and Test captain Ben Stokes have expressed a desire to remain in their positions – McCullum and Stokes have contracts with England until after the home Ashes in 2027.
And the management of the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) are not minded to impose the sweeping changes that often follow Ashes defeats down under.
