ADAM Hose will replace Brett D’Oliveira as Worcestershire Rapids captain for the remainder of the club’s T20 Blast campaign.
D’Oliveira remains as Worcestershire’s club captain and will continue to lead the side in the County Championship.
Hose will solely take on the role of captain for Worcestershire’s remaining T20 fixtures.
Worcestershire head coach, Alan Richardson said: “Adam is a highly respected member of the dressing room and someone with significant experience of T20 cricket.
“We feel this is the right time for him to lead the side for the remainder of the competition.
“Brett remains our club captain and County Championship captain, and his contribution as a leader at Worcestershire continues to be hugely valued.
“He cares deeply about the club and will remain an important voice within the group.”
Hose added: “It’s a real honour to captain Worcestershire for the rest of the Vitality Blast campaign.
“We’ve still got plenty to play for and there is a lot of belief in the group.
“My focus is on helping the team play with clarity, confidence and freedom, and making sure we give everything in the remaining fixtures.”
