The England cricket team is the national
cricket team which represents England and
Wales. Since 1 January 1997 it has been
governed by the England and Wales Cricket
Board (ECB) and was previously governed by
the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) since
1903.
England along with Australia were the first
team to be granted Test status on 15 March
1877 and gained full membership to the
International Cricket Council (ICC) on 15
June 1909. They also took part in the first
ever One Day International (ODI) against
Australia on 5 January 1971. While their
first Twenty20 match occurred on 13 June
2005 with their opponents being Australia.
As of December 2007 the England team have
won 301 of its 867 Test matches and are
ranked fifth in the ICC Test Championship.
They have finished runners-up in three
Cricket World Cups (1979, 1987 and 1992) and
are currently ranked seventh in the ICC ODI
rankings
Peter Moores was given the job of Head Coach
on 1 May 2007 following the resignation of
Duncan Fletcher after a poor 2007 Cricket
World Cup campaign. He subsequently employed
Andy Flower as assistant coach. |
