Alastair Cook has been cut into 7-4 (from 3-1) by bookmaker Coral to NOT captain England during the 2015 World Cup following Peter Moores’ comments this morning where he stated there is ‘no guarantee’ the current England skipper will lead the side for the tournament in Australia. The firm is also offering odds on Cook remaining captain which is available at 2-5.

“Peter Moores’ latest comments have added further fuel to the fire that Cook may be stripped of the captaincy ahead of the World Cup next year so we have cut his odds almost in half on him losing the role,” said Coral’s John Hill.
