Lancashire have parted company with men’s head coach Dale Benkenstein with immediate effect by mutual consent.
The South African, 50, leaves with Lancashire seventh in Division Two of the County Championship, having been relegated from the top flight last season.
They are the only club in either division not to have won a Championship game this summer.
Former Red Rose batter Steven Croft has been named as interim men’s head coach, assisted by Will Porterfield, Craig White and Karl Krikken.
Croft’s first game will be Lancashire’s T20 Blast opener at home to Worcestershire Rapids at Emirates Old Trafford on Thursday (18:30 BST).
