Jacob Bethell will captain England in the upcoming T20I series against Ireland. He will replace Harry Brook, who is being rested for The Ashes. While some criticized Bethell's appointment and his inclusion in the Test side, Rob Key defended it. The former England player believes that talent should be prioritized over the number of games under one's belt. Bethell will become England's youngest international captain. The series in Dublin starts September 17.
