XtraTime Web Desk: Former New Zealand skipper Brendon Maccullum appointed as the head coach of Kolkata Knight Riders to nreplace Jacques Kallis.
Macculam had two stints in the KKR during his playing days. His association with the franchise goes beyond as well, having played for Trinbago Knight Riders in the Caribbean Premier League.
“It’s a great honour to take on this responsibility,” said McCullum, who recently announced his retirement as a player. The Knight Rider franchises in IPL & CPL have become iconic and have set the standard in franchise cricket. We have fantastic squads in both KKR & TKR and I along with the support staff will be looking to build on the successes both franchises have enjoyed,” he added.
