Peter Moores, the new England coach, will have less power over the team than Duncan Fletcher, his predecessor, according to a report on the BBC.

Unlike Fletcher, Moores will have less day-to-day control, and on tour he will no longer fulfill the role of team manager, chief selector and coach.

The changes are believed to be ones that will be recommended by the Schofield report, an investigation into England's performances over the last four years, when it is published later this month.

Among other things, the report will look at how the selection committee works and how the coach reports to the ECB.
