Ben McKinney

In 2024, McKinney was named as England captain for the Under-19 World Cup in South Africa, having made his first-class debut for Durham against Sussex in the opening round of the previous summer's County Championship. He also featured in the 50-over Cup later that season. His calmness under pressure is cited as one of his main leadership traits, and as a top-order batter, his height gives him the ability to hit boundaries off good balls.
