• Lewis took charge of the team back in November 2022
• England whitewashed 16-0 by Australia during Ashes

Jon Lewis has been sacked from his role as head coach of England Women, paying the price for his team’s abject Ashes whitewash.

Lewis’s position has been hanging by a thread ever since his side were thrashed 16-0 in their multi-format series against Australia at the start of the year. Having also overseen an error-strewn showing at last year’s T20 World Cup, when they were knocked out in the group stage, he has now been let go as part of a wide-ranging review by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB).
