The former England captain and director of cricket admitted this winter is a 'significant challenge' for the new head coach.

Andrew Strauss believes new England head coach Chris Silverwood will act as an inspiration for young coaches in county cricket, but warned he will face a challenging winter.

The former England captain and director of cricket was speaking while discussing his plans for the Ruth Strauss Foundation, which was set up in memory of his late wife to fund research into rare forms of lung cancer and to support patients and families affected by the cancer.

Silverwood stepped up from his fast bowling coach role to replace Trevor Bayliss last month and is currently presiding over his first assignment; the tour of New Zealand.

"That is what the Foundation is trying to do. To raise awareness and research into these rare forms of lung cancer and to offer professional support for the patient and their families.

"We have been through a tough time, but thousands of other people in the country are going through exactly the same.

"If the foundation can make their experience a little bit easier and better, then I know Ruth would think that is the right thing to do."
