England cricket chief Chris Silverwood is expected to learn of his fate in the role as the ECB board of directors meets on Tuesday to dissect the disastrous 4-0 Ashes series defeat to Australia.
The tourists were decimated by their hosts despite two years of preparation for the trip, marking the third consecutive Ashes tour in which England have failed to win a Test in Australia.
Silverwood, 46, and team director Ashley Giles recently sent a series report to former England captain Sir Andrew Strauss —who now chairs the ECB's performance cricket committee—and chief executive Tom Harrison.
