Cricket Australia has released a statement that a decision will be taken on who will replace Darren Lehmann as coach of the national men’s team. The final decision will be out "in coming weeks," ahead of Qantas Tour to England, which is in early June.
Recently, Darren Lehmann had stepped down as the coach of Australia men's cricket team after the ball-tampering saga which happened when team Australia was touring to South Africa for a 4-match series.
The board members of Cricket Australia met on Friday to discuss the process to through which a new coach, as well as captain and deputy of men's ODI outfit, will be named.
Board chairman David Peever said recommendations for preferred candidates to fill those leadership positions will be sought from CA, with those names expected to be ratified and then publicly announced.
"The Board has asked management to provide recommendations regarding candidates for the men's head coach, ODI captain and ODI vice-captain," Peever said in a statement.
"The Board is anticipating receiving these recommendations in the coming weeks, with a view to making appointments ahead of the ODI tour to the UK.
"Once these appointments have been endorsed and finalised, announcements can then be made."
A few weeks back, 12 months bans were handed out to former captain Steve Smith, David Warner and also a 9-month ban was given to the main culprit Cameron Bancroft for their involvements in the ball-tampering scandal.
