That is fairly some turnaround for Liam Livingstone.

After initially being dropped by England for September’s one-day internationals towards Australia, he now finds himself captaining his nation towards West Indies in the identical format.

Jos Buttler’s calf damage – an ongoing difficulty which means the common white-ball skipper has not performed an innings since June – has dominated him out of the three 50-over video games within the Caribbean, the primary of which takes place in Antigua on Thursday (6pm UK and Eire).

England squad for West Indies sequence

Jos Buttler (captain – T20 sequence solely), Liam Livingstone (captain for ODI sequence), Rehan Ahmed, Jofra Archer, Jacob Bethell, Jafer Chohan, Jordan Cox, Sam Curran, Will Jacks, Saqib Mahmood, Dan Mousley, Jamie Overton, Michael Pepper (ODIs solely), Adil Rashid, Phil Salt, Reece Topley, John Turner

Subsequently, Livingstone is on the wheel on a short lived foundation. A Ruud van Nistelrooy determine, if you’ll, though as a Blackburn Rovers supporter he might favor to be in comparison with Tony Parkes.

Harry Brook stood in for Buttler in the course of the Australia ODIs however has simply completed a Check sequence in Pakistan and is now getting ready for one in New Zealand, so is just not out within the Caribbean.

With England’s ODI squad for this task so inexperienced – 4 gamers (Jafer Chohan, Michael Pepper, John Turner and Dan Mousley) haven’t performed any worldwide cricket, whereas some others (together with Jacob Bethell and Jordan Cox) so little – Livingstone was one of many few captaincy candidates, in all probability alongside batter Phil Salt and fellow all-rounder Sam Curran.

“It’s not every day someone tells you you’re going to be England captain. It’s an incredibly proud thing for me,” Livingstone, 31, mentioned after going from chopped to in cost in a matter of weeks.

“It’s my job as an experienced player to help these guys along and make them as comfortable as possible in this environment.

“I would like the subsequent few video games to be a hell of a number of enjoyable, play some good cricket, win some video games after which hand the reins again to Jos.”

Watch Livingstone’s T20 half-century towards Australia

It was really T20 worldwide cricket – the format wherein he thumped England’s quickest hundred, off simply 42 balls, towards Pakistan at Trent Bridge in 2021 – that supplied Livingstone’s avenue again into the 50-over group.

Knocks of 37 from 27 balls after which 87 from 37 in T20s towards Australia final month whereas batting at No 4, coupled with Buttler’s continued damage absence, noticed him added to the ODI group and he went on to play all 5 matches batting at No 6.

Livingstone hit the quickest ODI half-century at Lord’s, from 25 balls, towards Australia in September

‘I really feel like the very best of me continues to be to return’

“Being left out is all part of professional sport. I sat down with Rob Key [managing director of men’s cricket], had a really honest conversation with him and said, ‘all I want is another opportunity and hopefully I can prove you wrong’.

“Within the sequence towards Australia, I actually felt I did that. I am in a really completely different place to the place I used to be six or 12 months in the past, I really feel like a child, like I am nearly in the beginning of a brand new profession.

“I feel like the best of me is still to come.”

Livingstone has lived a weird England existence, usually batting in a decrease middle-order spot and charged with teeing off from ball one, whereas then serving as a part-time bowler round frontline spinners Adil Rashid and Moeen Ali, the latter of whom has now retired.

Smith Out

That has made it onerous for him to influence video games commonly however he needs an even bigger position now and it will likely be fascinating to see whether or not he strikes even greater up the batting order than No 6 towards West Indies, with no Buttler, Brook, Ben Duckett or Jamie Smith.

Solely twice in his 30 ODIs has Livingstone batted above No 6. Solely twice has he confronted over 50 deliveries.

“I’ve always said I know I’m good enough to play for England but maybe I needed more responsibility than I was getting. I don’t think I got that for the last two years,” he added.

Livingstone is keen to take extra accountability within the England aspect

“If you’re batting seven and only bowling a couple of overs a game it becomes quite a difficult role for someone who wants to be involved.

“I really feel I’ve labored a number of issues out with my batting and had a extremely good finish to the summer time.

“Now I’m excited to get a bat back in my hand and prove that I’m a better player than someone who bats at seven. I believe I can do more damage if I face 60 balls rather than 20.”
