Wicketkeeper-batsman Jos Buttler has been named England's white-ball captain, the England & Wales Cricket Board (ECB) announced on Thursday.
Buttler succeeds Eoin Morgan, who retired from international cricket earlier this week.
The ECB Interim Chair Martin Darlow and Interim Chief Executive Officer Clare Connor approved the appointment following the recommendation by the Managing Director of England Men's Cricket Rob Key, the ECB press release said.
Buttler has been part of England's white-ball teams for over a decade. He played his first T20I game in 2011 and made his ODI debut a year later.
The wicketkeeper-batsman has been an integral part of the set-up, having been the vice-captain since 2015 and has led the team 14 times previously (nine ODIs & five T20Is).
He has represented England 151 times in ODIs scoring 4120 runs at an average of 41.20, including 10 hundreds.
In T20 internationals, he has won 88 caps scoring 2140 runs with an average of 34.51.
He is one of three England cricketers (Dawid Malan and Heather Knight) to have scored hundreds in all three formats of the game.
Earlier this week, Eoin Morgan retired from international cricket with immediate effect, amidst question marks over his form.
He said: "After careful deliberation and consideration, I am here to announce my retirement from international cricket with immediate effect."
"To call time on what has been without a doubt the most enjoyable and rewarding chapter of my career hasn't been an easy decision, but I believe now is the right time to do so, both for me, personally, and for both England white-ball sides I have led to this point," he added.
