Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting is reportedly being targeted to coach England 's Test team, with new Managing Director of Men's Cricket Rob Key expected to split the job between red and white ball cricket.
Key, who was recently announced as Ashley Giles' permanent replacement, has previously spoken of his belief that England need two separate coaches. Speaking to Sky Sports back in February, Key said: "I would split the coaching.
"Not because it's a lot of work but because it's two very different teams at two different times. The [white-ball] team could do with a facilitator coach who can just keep delivering what they're doing but challenge them.
