Peter Moores (born 18 December 1962) is an English former first class cricketer who was the head coach of the men's England cricket team.
Moores played as a wicketkeeper for Worcestershire and Sussex and captained Sussex in 1997.[1] He retired from playing first-class cricket in 1998 and became a successful coach of Sussex leading the county to the 2003 County Championship. Moores coached England "A" on their tour of the West Indies in 2000–01 and the English National Cricket Academy from October 2005 to 2007. He was appointed coach of the full England team in April 2007.[2] On 7 January 2009 Moores was removed as coach following a public falling out with Kevin Pietersen, who also left his position as England captain.[3]
He became the coach of Lancashire County Cricket Club, on 11 February 2009.[4] In 2011, he became the only coach to have won the championship with two different counties.
In 2014, Moores was re-appointed to coach the England national men's team, serving until shortly after the 2015 World Cup. In December 2021, he was appointed as Karachi Kings head coach for PSL 7.[5]
