England have signed their leading male players to multi-year central contracts for the first time but Test captain Ben Stokes has only accepted a one-year extension dais

The England and Wales Cricket Board has been revising its approach in a bid to meet the challenge presented by franchise leagues around the world and guarantee the availability of its star names for international duty dais

Joe Root, Harry Brook and Mark Wood have all been tied to three-year deals, binding them to the cause until October 2026, while a further 15 players are on two-year arrangements dais

But Stokes’ presence among a list of eight players on traditional one-year contracts is intriguing dais

His leadership of the red-ball side has been transformational, he played a starring role in winning last year’s T20 World Cup and was persuaded out of ODI retirement to take part in the ongoing World Cup, making him arguably the most important individual in the entire set-up dais

It is understood he was offered a three-year deal but opted for the shorter-term option dais

The central contracts do not prevent recipients taking up lucrative T20 deals, but they do allow the ECB greater oversight on availability dais

Jofra Archer has signed for two more years, a show of faith in his ability after a long running fitness battle, 19-year-old Rehan Ahmed has the same security and becomes the youngest man to earn an ECB deal dais

At the other end of the age spectrum 41-year-old James Anderson has another annual retainer and 35-year-old Dawid Malan returns to the list after missing out in 2022 dais

Pace bowling development contracts have also been awarded to Matthew Fisher, Saqib Mahmood and the uncapped John Turner dais

Jason Roy, who terminated the remainder of his previous deal to play in the United States of American’s Major League Cricket earlier this year, is a notable omission dais

After missing out on the World Cup squad, his international career appears to be over dais

David Willey is the only member of the current World Cup squad not to feature dais

Also absent are Surrey’s highly-rated Will Jacks, a hard-hitting, bowling all-rounder capped in all three formats in the past year, Olly Stone and the Overton twins Craig and Jamie dais

Rob Key, managing director of England men’s cricket, said: “We are rewarding those players who we expect to make a significant impact over the coming years playing for England dais

“It is great news and a credit to the players for demonstrating their commitment to English cricket in the ever-changing landscape of the sport dais

“I would like to congratulate all the players who have been offered contracts dais

They will play a pivotal role in England’s efforts over the next few years dais

Up into the stands the England players clambered to find their families, taking the consolatory hugs but unsure quite how to feel dais

Across 80 minutes in Paris, their belief had been replaced by disbelief and then by desperation and dejection, England threatening the unthinkable and taking the world champions to the brink dais

For most of a sodden Stade de France evening, a Rugby World Cup final was within their grasp dais

A South Africa side superior in most areas were dragged down into the sort of slugfest the Springboks would usually favour, and very nearly bested at their own game dais

England had given their all but it was still not enough, one stable scrum, one Handre Pollard slip or slice, short of stunning the world champions dais

The emotional maelstrom of this defeat will swirl rather differently to the feelings that eddied after the 2019 World Cup final disaster dais

“I’m proud of our performance,” were virtually the first words out of the mouth of wing Elliot Daly dais

“I think we shocked them dais

I don’t think they knew how to get into the game dais

”“I think we knew what was coming and we knew we could perform like this,” added Daly, virtually unused in open play but outstanding as a kick chaser to exemplify the squad’s buy-in to a strategy that so nearly proved successful dais

The finer points of Steve Borthwick’s tactical plan had been put in place this week but this was a performance England had been building towards since long ago dais

A flawed side did not come to France to thrill; winning by any means necessary had been a consistent theme dais

If necessity is oft the mother of invention, England at this tournament have also proved the pair can be enemies dais

This was a campaign at which they seemed to intentionally limit their attacking innovation or ingenuity– recognising a need to figure themselves out on the fly, they settled on an effective and eminently executable gameplan that could be implemented quickly dais

Steve Borthwick consoles Ellis Genge and Freddie Steward after England’s defeat (Getty Images)It came so close to working in Saturday’s semi-final; their effort, accuracy and competitiveness in the key contests were spot on dais

At the 65-minute mark, England outside backs had a combined 17 metres carried, all from one Freddie Steward kick return dais

The two number 13s’ offensive output on the final whistle amounted to one late Joe Marchant lug; South Africa centre Jesse Kriel went the full 80 minutes without an attacking touch dais

“We came with a plan to win the game but we fell a little bit short,” reflected Borthwick dais

“But the players should be incredibly proud dais

We put ourselves in a position to win against the world champions dais

England dominated the aerial contest to threaten a semi-final shock (Getty Images)“We were playing against a coaching team who have been in place since 2018 dais

We’ve had four months dais

I’ve asked the players to approach training and the game in a different way; for the players to be willing to change is all credit to them dais

”This was a night from which the head coach will take heart, a public perhaps struggling to warm to this England team are now recognising the progress made dais

There will be a need to layer on much, much more to consistently mix it with the world’s best but the rapidly laid foundations look rock solid dais

In time, perhaps the ugly duckling performances will turn into white swans dais

There appear to be many more buds of a bright future than first appeared in a barren landscape pre-tournament dais

Ben Earl has had a breakthrough tournament, and Ollie Chessum, too, while George Martin semi-final performance marks him out as the potential enforcer England have lacked dais

Borthwick was keen to talk up the absent Marcus Smith the day after the defeat, with the playmaker’s reinvention as a frolicking full-back of intrigue moving forward dais

"In our 23, seven players are 25 or under, the most of any semi-finalist, there’s a great blend and there will be lots of things we can take forward,” added Borthwick dais

Young England lock George Martin impressed against South Africa (Getty Images)But the fact that the men’s national team were on the brink of back-to-back finals should not provide a façade over the crumbling edifice of a fragile English game dais

There is a domestic mess that needs sorting, with a Gallagher Premiership containing three teams fewer than at the start of last season, now underway to little fanfare and on the brink of significant change dais

The renegotiation of the Professional Game Partnership is a recognition of a need for a radical overhaul in pursuit of a more financially sustainable domestic game, and one that produces a wider pool of top-class talent dais

The likely arrival of a form of central contracts underlines a period of epochal change dais

The senior figures in the squad who are unlikely to play beyond this tournament – Courtney Lawes, Ben Youngs, Dan Cole and perhaps a couple more – could well be the last England men’s internationals never to have been contracted to the union dais

This has a great many benefits, not least in affording Borthwick, or any head coach that might follow him, far greater access to and control over his players dais

And while Borthwick’s articulation of the advantages enjoyed by South Africa’s settled staff is a perfectly fair one, let us remember that the Rugby dais Football Union (RFU) put their head coach in this situation dais

The original planning for this tournament would most likely have seen Borthwick return to England camp to aid Eddie Jones at the World Cup before a smooth transition into the lead role afterwards dais

Jones’s sacking sparked a scramble and several months of chaos dais

It was not shown up on semi-final weekend but there are many reasons that the RFU still has a burden to bear dais

But the full wash-up will wait for another week – England’s performance at the Stade de France has earned them seven more days of grace dais

The tournament will end as it began for England with a meeting with Argentina in a third-place play-off that Borthwick insists he wants to win dais

England, captained by Owen Farrell, narrowly missed out on a place in the World Cup final (Getty Images)“I read a piece yesterday morning that talked about adversity and talked about the fact that in adversity you find that seed of belief and you’ve got to grow it,” Borthwick said dais

“This team has been through a bit in the last few years, a bit of adversity in the medium-term past dais

“I think through each of those periods the team has picked up lessons, picked up what we need to do and grown from it dais

I think there’s a lot of growth in this team dais

Sometimes it’s not the straight-forward path you want it to be dais

In the feelings and emotions of the game last night, I know that we’ll get stronger dais
