By IANS News August 06, 2024 • 10:22 AM View: 1011

Cricket Australia CEO Nick Hockley: Cricket Australia CEO Nick Hockley has announced that he will step down after the upcoming season, following nearly 13 years working in Australian cricket, including five as chief executive.

Hockley is expected to step down towards the end of March 2025, or potentially later depending on the process to appoint his successor.

"This was a difficult decision, however, following what promises to be a blockbuster summer and with our five-year strategic plan well progressed, this is the right time to pursue another challenge, while giving the Board plenty of time to find its next CEO to build on the strong foundations now in place.
