ECB body for Lloyd8217;s replacement

LONDON: THE England Cricket Board ECB has appointed a five-man committee to draw up a shortlist of suitable replacements for England coach David Lloyd, who is set to resign after the World Cup. Lloyd announced last month, after failing to get a guarantee from the ECB on a contract extension, that he intended to end his three-year tenure after the World Cup. Lloyd has agreed to join BSkyB as a cricket commentator. Former England captains and current selectors Graham Gooch and Mike Gatting were both touted for the job but both have ruled themselves out.
