Former England cricket star hilariously denies taking job in US after being announced as organisation's new head coach

 


  • A former England cricket star has been announced as the new head coach in America
  • However, the former Test cricket batsman has bizarrely denied that he has been appointed
  • England legend Stuart Broad was among those to comment on the situation

Former England cricket international Mark Butcher has bizarrely denied that he has found a new coaching job in the United States, despite the organisation having already announced his appointment.

Sports teams frequently use social media to announce new players and management changes. An official announcement by a team is often the final confirmation of a hire.

However, this time around that was not the case after the National Cricket League USA posted on X that Butcher had joined the company as its new head coach for the upcoming matches.

The cricket organisation told their followers on the social media platform: 'We are delighted to welcome Mark Alan Butcher to the National Cricket League USA as our new head coach! Get ready for expert coaching and exciting matches!' alongside a photo of the former England star.

Butcher was clearly shocked by the revelation and was quick to respond to the post with a short three-word explanation, adding: “News to me!!”.

During his active career, Butcher broke into the England team in 1997 and tried to cement his position as an opening batsman. In the following two years, he shone with stunning centuries against South Africa and Australia.

The 51-year-old played 71 Test matches for England, scoring a total of 4,288 runs. He retired from international play in 2004.

Legendary England pace bowler Stuart Broad was one of those who saw the humour in Butcher's inappropriate new role, reacting with the words: 'Good luck coach!!'

“Does Mark Butcher know he has a new job?” read another comment, ridiculing the original post from the American organisation.

Meanwhile, Butcher was present at the Old Trafford cricket ground on Tuesday, where he paid an emotional tribute to his former team-mate and England legend Graham Thorpe, who passed away on Monday.

Thorpe spent 17 years at Surrey, where he played alongside Butcher, helping the side win three County Championships in four seasons between 1999 and 2002.

'He [Thorpe] 'He was a hero of mine, a left-handed youngster at Surrey, he's been on the England A tours and was the rising star,' Butcher explained on Sky Sports. 'We shared a dressing room at the Oval for many, many years.'

“I've learned so much from him as a player, but also as a friend, and I'm devastated. Just terrible news and I just hope he's in a better place now, that's all.”
