Hayden Set to Join Cricket Australia Board

Sydney: Matthew Hayden is set to join the board of Cricket Australia, seven months after retiring from international cricket, according to a report in the Courier-Mail. Hayden, 37, is expected to replace Allan Border, who will end his eight-year term on the board.

The paper reported that Hayden and Bryan Phelan were the only nominations for Queensland's two positions on the Cricket Australia board, and it would become official at Queensland Cricket's annual general meeting on Tuesday.

The move could improve relations between Cricket Australia and the players due to Hayden's recent involvement in the game and his role as an executive member of the Australian Cricketers' Association.

Besides the retiring Border, Mark Taylor and Wally Edwards are the other two former Test cricketers who are now Cricket Australia directors.
