Jacob Bethell, who is still 22 years old, will become the youngest captain at all in England when he takes care of the T20is party in Dublin since September 17 (photo Alex Davidson/Getty Images) The promotion of Jacob Bethell as the captain of England for the upcoming T20i series against Ireland has caused a debate, but former England International believes that criticism is unfair and stems from outdated thinking. About the fact that the young man was part of the test test was his latest test appearance that appeared in an oval test against India. England will play three T20is in Dublin since September 17 without several players of the first selection, including regular Captain Harry Brook, who is rested in front of the ashes. Bethell, who turns 22 years old in October, enters as a captain and becomes the youngest international captain in England and at the age of 23 broke the record of Monty Bowden from 1889. He responded to Doubts about Bethell’s experience and the former player was pushing against the narrative strongly. “Spain played a 16 -year -old (Lamine Yamal) in the final of the European Cup, you know Luke Littler won the World Championship in 17th place. You know, Jacob Bethel 22,” (turns 22 in two months), he said. He argued that the English cricket had long been too rigid about age and experience in terms of talent support. “I consider the whole thing that is really fascinating, the Jacob Bethel debate with the amount of cricket playing. And I grew up like you. I always felt, looked or looked at the English cricket, English sport sometimes, that we were incredibly conservative-you know as if we had to play as many games with a red ball before playing for England. ” Ex-Cricketer attracted a comparison with international giants who soon broke. “This is not necessarily true when you look at other countries. If you look at someone like David Warner, he played a handful of games before he left and played. Steve Waugh played something like nine games before playing Australia. Shane Warne played four games.”
