Former New South Wales premier Mike Baird will be the new chair of Cricket Australia after the incumbent Lachlan Henderson flagged his intention to resign from the role following an impending move home to Perth.that Henderson’s decision is set to become public as soon as the end of the Adelaide Test between Australia and the West Indies.
Baird, by contrast, is based in Sydney as chief executive of HammondCare, a Christian charity providing health and aged care services. He served as a director of Cricket New South Wales from 2019 to 2020. Henderson, who joined the board in 2018, has won respect for how he has chaired the organisation since the start of the year, in particular strengthening Cricket Australia’s international relationships through the successful undertaking of tours to Pakistan and Sri Lanka. He has also calmed a previously febrile relationship between the governing body and its state association owners.
