Peter Moores has been confirmed as England head coach for a second time.
The 51-year-old previously led the national team for an ill-fated reign between 2007-09 when he was involved in a dispute with Kevin Pietersen.
Analysis
"Things are so delicate around the England camp. At least Peter Moores knows how the system works.
"He hasn't played international cricket himself and that was an issue as far as Kevin Pietersen was concerned, that credibility of never having been out there and played Test cricket or one-day international cricket himself.
"But Pietersen isn't there any more and it's a very different England set-up now - new players are coming in and having to work very hard to get over what has happened this winter."
Moores guided Lancashire to the 2011 County Championship title and succeeds Andy Flower, who resigned in January after a 5-0 Ashes defeat by Australia.
He was chosen ahead of one-day coach Ashley Giles, Mick Newell, Mark Robinson and Australian Trevor Bayliss.
Moores will take charge of England's Test, one-day international and Twenty20 teams, a position Giles had been favourite for following Flower's resignation.
Others under consideration for the post included Nottinghamshire coach Newell, Sussex's Robinson and former Sri Lanka coach Bayliss.
Moores led England in seven Test series, starting with a 3-0 win over West Indies, after replacing Duncan Fletcher as coach before a breakdown in his relationship with then captain Pietersen.
The former Worcestershire and Sussex wicketkeeper was swiftly appointed as Lancashire coach in February 2009 on a three-year contract, having previously led Sussex to the County Championship title in 2003.

- First-class appearances: 231

Lancashire had not won the championship outright since 1934 when he arrived. They ended the long wait in 2011 but were relegated 12 months later, bouncing back as Division Two champions last year.
England's next match is a one-day game against Scotland on 9 May.
That precedes a limited-overs and Test series against Sri Lanka, which starts with a Twenty20 match at The Oval on 20 May.
