In the white-ball formats, the side reached the final of the recently-concluded Champions Trophy in Pakistan and UAE, a Cricket World Cup Final in 2019, and a T20 World Cup Final in 2021.
Formally signalling his intention to step down from ODI and T20I role, Stead stated his intention of spending more time at home.
“I’m looking forward to getting away from touring life for a while and having a think about my future,” said Stead.
“My focus has been on finishing the season strongly with a lesser experienced team.
“The past six to seven months has been particularly busy with relatively non-stop cricket action since September.
“I now want to evaluate my options but still feel I have coaching left in me, albeit not as head coach across all formats.
“The next month will give me the opportunity to discuss the situation more with my wife, family and others.
“I’ll be in a better position to know whether I want to reapply for the Test coaching position after this time of reflection.”
