ECB Confirms Marcus North’s Appointment As Men’s National Selector
Durham County Cricket Club: The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has named former Australia batter Marcus North as England Men’s National Selector, marking the end of his long-standing stint with Durham County Cricket Club. North arrives at the ECB after nearly eight years at Durham, where he held the role of Director of Cricket following his appointment in 2018. Over time, his responsibilities expanded to include oversight of both the men’s and women’s professional setups at the county.
As part of his new assignment, the 45-year-old will be involved in selecting squads across the England men’s pathway — from the senior national side to the Lions and Young Lions teams. His remit will also include monitoring domestic cricket during the county season, assisting in decisions related to central contracts, and supporting long-term succession planning alongside the ECB’s scouting structure.
North will additionally work with the ECB’s science and medical departments on matters concerning player fitness, workload balance, and scheduling management.
