Australia coach Lehmann to quit amid tampering scandal

Darren Lehmann is to quit as head coach of Australia at the end of the current Test series against South Africa, reports BBC on Thursday.

The 48-year-old will step down after the final Test in Johannesburg, which starts on Friday, in the wake of the ball-tampering scandal.

Lehmann, who was cleared of any wrongdoing by Cricket Australia, had said on Wednesday he would not resign.

Former skipper Steve Smith plus batsmen David Warner and Cameron Bancroft were banned for their part in the scandal.
