England 's humiliating 4-0 defeat by Australia in the Ashes has already claimed two victims, with managing director of men's cricket Ashley Giles and head coach Chris Silverwood leaving their roles.
Both Giles and Silverwood submitted a report on England's Ashes failings last week and Sir Andrew Strauss, in his role as chair of the ECB's cricket committee, was the man tasked with examining that report.
Strauss then made his recommendations to the ECB on Wednesday, with Giles and Silverwood subsequently axed.
