Former New Zealand captain Stephen Fleming is expected to be appointed as England Test coach after the sacking of Brendon McCullum.
McCullum was fired earlier this month following a string of poor results and several off-field incidents, but remains in charge of England's white-ball sides.
Former England coach Andy Flower subsequently ruled himself out of the running to replace McCullum.
As first reported by the Telegraph, Fleming, 53, has emerged as the leading candidate to succeed his former international team-mate.
If appointed, Fleming will have a say - alongside director of men's cricket Rob Key and national selector Marcus North - in the appointment of a new Test captain, following the shock retirement of Ben Stokes from international cricket.
