Captain: Alastair Cook
Coach: Trevor Bayliss
Cricket was introduced to the world by England way back in the 18th century; WG Grace can almost certainly be considered the man responsible for shaping cricket the way we know it is today. The history of the England team though, can be traced back to 1877 when they took on Australia. It was the first ever Test match played in the history of the game.
By 1882-83, when England played Australia, the contest came to be known as the Ashes. Since then, both teams have fought tooth and nail to regain the Ashes Urn. In 1932-33, the showdown between both teams reached epic proportions when Douglas Jardine, in an attempt to stop Don Bradman from scoring mountains of runs, had decided to develop the fast leg theory which in turn came to be known as Bodyline.
In 1952, when England crushed India 3-0 at home, Len Hutton had the honour of becoming the first professional captain to lead them. David Sheppard had captained the first two Tests in his absence.
England were one of the top teams in Test cricket even till 1980s, but they reached their nadir in the 1990s. It took Nasser Hussain's battle-hardened captaincy, followed by Michael Vaughan's tranquil presence and collected approach to resurrect the fortunes of English cricket.
England also was the first team to play an One-Day International. In ODIs, they have been known as perennial bridesmaids, having reached the final of World Cup thrice in four editions, but losing on all three. In 2010 Kevin Pietersen inspired England to win the ICC World T20 their maiden ICC title.
