Zak Crawley outlines Kevin Pietersen ambition as he eyes role in England World Cup defence

Zak Crawley has outlined his desire to become a regular for England in all three formats, admitting white-ball cricket "probably comes more naturally to me".

Crawley has been heavily backed by the Test setup, with head coach Brendon McCullum calling him a rare talent who will win games for England despite a middling record of 1,598 runs at an average of 28.53 after 57 innings.

And while Crawley says that red-ball cricket is his "priority" and "favourite format", he is also hoping to break into England's white-ball setup in a year which will see them defend the 50-over World Cup crown they won in 2019.
