Justin Langer told Cricket Australia he quit as head coach because he no longer had the support of a number of players, support staff and board members, according to a report in The Australian.
Langer, who has been linked with the vacant England coaching job following the exit of Chris Silverwood on Thursday, turned down a short-term extension with Australia and has now departed the role he had been in since May of 2018.
The Australian said it had obtained a copy of the resignation later Langer sent to Cricket Australia CEO Nick Hockley, in which he reportedly apologised if he came across as "too intense".
