Surrey's cricket manager, Steve Rixon, will be parting company with the county at the end of the season, after failing to agree terms for a new contract. Rixon signed a two-year contract when he joined Surrey from New South Wales in 2004, but was unable to ignite their glory years of the early 2000s.
"I'd like to thank Steve for all of his hard work over the past two seasons," said Paul Sheldon, Surrey's chief executive. "We wish him all the best in the future."
Rixon stated: "I have enjoyed my two years at Surrey and hope that I have begun to instil a new culture within the dressing-room. I hope that whoever Surrey appoint as the next manager can continue to progress the side and further develop the talented young players at the club."
