Domestic English club Yorkshire's chairman Colin Graves would reportedly stand for the position of England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB)'s chairman when Giles Clarke steps down from his post in May.
Clarke, who has been chairman for eight years, would move on to take on a new role as the ECB's first president. The board's members would be asked to approve the proposed changes later this month.
Graves, who has been chairman of county side Yorkshire since 2012, revealed last week that there were a lot of things to sort out in the English game, adding that Test match ticket sales are falling, and that needs looking at in a big way, the BBC reported.
He added that they have also got a recreational game in which participation is falling, and that needs looking at too.
Graves further said that they have got to look at Twenty20, how they play it, when they play it and whether they can improve it for the public.
