Ashley Giles was appointed coach of the limited overs team but had no involvement in the Test team.[2] Flower was the first of the two coaches to depart, with Ashley Giles being replaced as limited overs coach when Peter Moores was appointed as the roles were combined again.[3] The role was split again after Chris Silverwood's departure in 2022 with the Test position going to Brendon McCullum and the white-ball role being taken by Matthew Mott.[4] From January 2025 the roles will be combined again as McCullum takes over as white-ball coach.[1]
