Aiden Markram to miss remainder of The Hundred; Jos Buttler takes over as captain
Aiden Markram steps away from The Hundred; Jos Buttler assumes Manchester Super Giants captaincy.
CricHubb3h ago
Manchester Super Giants captain Aiden Markram is leaving The Hundred for personal reasons. Jos Buttler steps in as replacement captain for what's left of the season.
Markram's exit removes the side's top run-scorer and its on-field leader. Buttler already filled the role last game after Markram left the squad.
The rest of the schedule stays the same, with no further changes reported to the Super Giants roster.
CricHubb Take
Buttler hasn't led a franchise side since stepping away from England, so this run gives him a chance to test whether he wants the job again next season.
