Rio Ferdinand has regained the England captaincy from Steven Gerrard following the defender's return from injury.
The Manchester United player had been selected as England's captain for last summer's World Cup only to miss the tournament after injuring his knee in training.
Fabio Capello opted to pass the captaincy to Gerrard, but although the Liverpool midfielder was one of the few England players to emerge from South Africa with any credit, he will return to the ranks with Ferdinand as captain.
Ferdinand, who has ongoing concerns about a long-term back injury, is expected to start in central defence alongside Joleon Lescott for tomorrow's Euro 2012 qualifier against the Group G leaders Montenegro at Wembley.
