MELBOURNE, Dec 25 (AFP): Australia cricket coach Darren Lehmann will not seek to renew his contract when his current deal expires at the end of 2019, he said in an interview aired Monday.
Lehmann outlined his plans to Fox Sports, declaring the English summer season in 18 months will be his last hurrah.
Australia will seek to defend their World Cup title in the first half of the 2019 English season before playing an Ashes Test series.
