Ponting has been mentioned as a candidate for both and admitted he would be open to discussing possibilities with Cricket Australia.  

"I've got two more months now that I wouldn't normally have with Mumbai not happening anymore," Ponting told AAP.

"There's a bit more time on our hands than I had before.

"Look, I haven't been asked anything about that job and it's a huge commitment; a massive time commitment.

"I'd consider it and have a think about it, but I'd have to talk to my family about it as well.”

Ponting said the travel demands of the chairman role would be a factor in determining whether to take up a position.

"With that role, you're probably on the road for six or seven months of the year and I've done that for 20 years,” he said.

"I've said to Cricket Australia from the moment I've finished I'm happy to get involved somewhere and help out where I can.

"Full-time coaching roles for me around the Aussie team are something that we need to work through and talk about so we'll see what happens there.”
