FORMER captain Charlotte Edwards has suggested she may be interested in taking charge of the ailing England side, stating she is ready to “help and support” the women’s team.

The future of current head coach Jon Lewis is under serious scrutiny after an unprecedented 16-0 Ashes whitewash, coming off the back of a poor showing at last year’s T20 World Cup.

Edwards, who captained her country for 11 years before retiring in 2016, has gone on to forge a successful coaching career at domestic and franchise level and is seen by many as the ideal candidate to lead a revival.
