The England team represents the countries of England and Wales, under the governance of the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB).

The team plays in Test, ODI and Twenty20 cricket matches. Despite the sport originating in England, the country has never won the World Cup. England played in the first ever Test match in 1877 against Australia in Melbourne and also the first ever One-Day International in 1971, against the same opponents.

Peter Moores has been the head coach of the side since the resignation of Duncan Fletcher in May 2007. Andy Flower is his assistant, and Allan Donald as a locum bowling coach.
