England's opener Jason Roy will captain the Oval Invincibles in their upcoming Hundred game against the Northern Superchargers. and went missing after attending a match of the Lions Tour of England againstSouth Africawith regular skipper Sam Billings.
This shows a great deal of trust in Roy. Roy has endured a difficult summer with the bat so far, but he had never captained a senior-level team before. However, with Will Jacks another captaincy candidate also serving for the England Lions, Roy was handed over the job and said he "enjoys the extra responsibility." Sibbles hopes Roy can find some form against Supercharger. This summer he managed just 76 runs off 98 balls in the six T20Is and at The Hundred he scored 0 and 10.
"I am delighted to have been entrusted with the task of captaining the players. I enjoy this special responsibility," Roy said. "It's an honor to lead the team, even if it's just for one game.".He told Sky Sports: The World Cup winner has done an incredible job for Eoin Morgan. He was told to hit the ball by Eoin, as was the entire team.
