Former Australian fast bowler Jason Gillespie has reportedly ruled out competing for the position of England team director Andy Flower's successor following the Zimbabwean resignation over the team's 5-0 Ashes loss.
Within hours of Flower's resignation, Gillespie was floated as a frontline replacement candidate for which limited-overs coach Ashley Giles is now favourite.
However, News.com.au reports that Gillespie has clarified the position and announced that he would stay on his current job as the coach of county side Yorkshire at the present, with the report saying that the former quick is temporarily anchored to Yorkshire role as he has four children under the age of eight, who are too young to adjust to a move.
Gillespie, who headed into the Zimbabwe midlands for his first coaching stint with the Mid-West Rhinos, has drawn excellent reviews at Yorkshire where he is happily residing on a staff contract, the report added.
