Cricket Australia: Andrew Strauss tipped to become the next CEO

Former England captain Andrew Strauss has emerged as a surprise candidate to become CEO of Cricket Australia following the resignation of Kevin Roberts.

Cricket Australia has been in a financial loss since the COVID-19 pandemic.


According to a report in The Australian, Strauss could be the next CEO of Cricket Australia. The 43-year-old had represented the county cricket for Middlesex and captained the England national team in all formats of the game.

He served England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) for three years as a director of cricket between 2015 to 2018.

After Roberts resigned from his position of CEO, Nick Hockley was named in as an interim replacement with the governing body searching for the ideal candidate to serve as a full-time CEO.

Strauss has scored 7,037 runs in 100 Tests and 4,205 runs in 127 ODIs during his playing career with England.

The South Africa-born also played a crucial role as ECB director, which lead the national side to claim their maiden World Cup title last year.
