Australia coach Justin langer was handed more power on Friday in a shake-up of the national cricket selection process following the resignation of Mark Waugh.
A streamlined selection panel will now consist of just three people - langer, Trevor Hohns and Greg Chappell - with Waugh not being replaced.
langer will chair the Twenty20 panel, with support from the other two, while Hohns will head the Test and one-day process in consultation with langer and Chappell.
Previously, Waugh - who leaves next month to join pay-TV company Fox Sports - focused only on T20s.
"This sees Justin take on additional responsibility as both the head coach and lead selector in Twenty20 cricket, as we build towards the ICC World T20 in Australia in 2020," said Cricket Australia's team performance chief Pat Howard.
"Justin has performed a similar role previously while coach of the Perth Scorchers, and has a wealth of knowledge around the Big Bash league and its players."
Cricket Australia's selection panel has gone through various formats over the years. At one point, it included five people.
langer was appointed in May after the 12-month suspensions of ex-captain Steve Smith and his deputy David Warner over a cheating scandal which also saw previous coach Darren lehmann quit.
Peter’s involvement
Australia batsman Peter Handscomb has denied playing any part in the ball-tampering scandal in South Africa which led to the suspensions of captain Steve Smith and opening batsmen David Warner and Cameron Bancroft.
Speaking for the first time since the scandal erupted during the second test in Cape Town in March, Handscomb, who was 12th man in the match, said video which hinted at his involvement had been edited and is misleading.
The video appears to show Handscomb speaking with coach Darren lehmann by walkie-talkie before running onto the field to deliver a message to Bancroft who had used sandpaper to alter the condition of the ball. If accurate, the footage would support the suggestion that the number of Australian team members aware of ball-tampering was wider than has been claimed.
