      <title>England part ways with white-ball head coach Mott</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330372193/england-part-ways-with-white-ball-head-coach-mott</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;England white-ball head coach Matthew Mott has stepped down following their Twenty20 World Cup semi-final exit against eventual champions India last month, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) announced on Tuesday.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;England assistant coach Marcus Trescothick has been appointed on an interim basis to replace the Australian.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Since his appointment in May 2022, the 50-year-old Mott helped England win the T20 World Cup later that year and guided them to white-ball series wins over Australia, Bangladesh, Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand and Pakistan.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“I am immensely proud to have coached the England men’s team; it has been an honour,” Mott said in a statement.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“We have put everything into trying to achieve success over the past two years, and I am incredibly proud of the character and passion that the team has displayed during that period, including a magnificent T20 World Cup victory in 2022.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Former England batsman Trescothick, 48, will lead the team on an interim basis for the rest of the home summer, which includes a white-ball series against Australia in September.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“He (Mott) can be proud of his achievements as he leaves his post as one of only three coaches who have won a World Cup with England,” said Rob Key, ECB managing director of England men’s cricket.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“After three World Cup cycles in a short space of time, I now feel the team needs a new direction to prepare for the challenges ahead. This decision was not made lightly, but I believe it is the right time for the team’s future success …&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“The search for a full-time replacement will now begin. It is essential that we go through the right process to ensure we get the best person for the job.”&lt;/p&gt;
