Lancashire says director of cricket performance Mark Chilton will leave the club, with women’s director David Thorley also set to depart. The exits follow internal restructuring at the county.
BBC Sport reports both officials are due to leave. The Guyana Chronicle adds that Chilton, a former Lancashire captain, has worked with the club for more than two decades, taking up his current director of cricket role in 2021. It also states Thorley’s departure comes as Lancashire reorganises its women’s cricket structure behind the scenes.
While the outlets align on who is leaving, they differ mainly in emphasis: BBC Sport focuses on the fact that both senior roles are changing, whereas the Guyana Chronicle provides more background on Chilton’s playing past and overall tenure, and frames the departures as part of broader club restructuring.
