The ECB are set to appoint Australian Trevor Bayliss as the new Head Coach of the England Cricket team in the next 24 hours.
Reports over the past week seemed to suggest Yorkshire's coach Jason Gillespie may be tempted to leave the county he has performed wonders with, yet the ECB look now to have turned their attention to former Sri Lanka coach Bayliss.
Bayliss led Sri Lanka to the 2011 World Cup Final during his stint in charge, where he worked alongside current England interim-coach Paul Farbrace, who presumably will work with Bayliss once again once he takes over.
Bayliss has enjoyed success across the globe, taking charge of his home state New South Wales where he won the Pura Cup and the ING Trophy in his first few seasons in charge.
He has twice won the Indian Premier League in charge of the Kolkata Knight Riders, as well as coming out on top in the inaugural Big Bash competition with the Sydney Sixers.
One of the reasons Bayliss may have got the nod over other candidates including Gillespie, is the success he has enjoyed in one-day cricket where obvious improvements are needed in English cricket.
Speaking on missing out on the job, Gillespie has told the Yorkshire Post, "I spoke to Andrew (Strauss) this morning, and he said they've got a prefered candidate they're speaking to.
"It would have been a difficult decision to leave Yorkshire. As I've said all along, I love my job at Yorkshire - it's a fantastic role.
"It would have been a tough decision to leave, and I've also got this new role with the Adelaide Strikers in the Big Bash League that I'm very excited about."
Going into an important period for the England team, it looks as though Bayliss will be the man entrusted in regaining the Ashes later this summer, as well as reforming the country's one-day performances.
