Cricket Australia's selection chair Trevor Hohns handed in his resignation Friday, media reports said, ending over a decade at the helm spanning several world-beating squads.

The Sydney Morning Herald reported Hohns would be stepping down from the role after a career selecting some of Australia's most successful cricket teams.

The 67-year-old, a former Australian spin bowler, became a selector in 1993 and was chair of selectors for a combined 15 years across two stints as a stalwart of the selection panel.

Under his first stint, Australia won a record 16 successive Test matches and claimed the 1999 and 2003 World Cups in a golden era.

His current stint as chief selector began in 2016 when Rod Marsh quit following a string of heavy test defeats.
