Gillespie dreams of selector role

– Former Test fast bowler Jason Gillespie revealed his ambition to become a selector yesterday as Australia rebuilds after this year’s ball-tampering scandal.

The current Sussex coach is well regarded after he led the Adelaide Strikers to their maiden Big Bash League T20 title this year, and took Yorkshire to back-to-back Division One crowns in 2014 and 2015.

Gillespie, touted as a possible Australia head coach before Justin Langer’s appointment in May, has also coached as a consultant for Cricket Australia in the past. – AFP
