The WACA has plunged deeper into turmoil with another board member quitting weeks after the exit of chair Terry Waldron, and the female CEO claiming gender is an issue for some within the organisation.

WACA CEO Christina Matthews denies she has a bad relationship with the board before claiming some traditionalists were against her leading the organisation because she's female.

Legendary WA cricketer Graeme Wood, a former WACA board member, denied gender was an issue with the organisation's leadership but told Bartlett "the best person should get the job".
