CAPE TOWN: Gary Kirsten’s family could hold the key to whether the former Test opening batsman becomes the next coach of South Africa.

After a successful stint as coach of India, who won the World Cup and earned the number one ranking in Test cricket under his guidance, Kirsten would be hot favourite to play the same role for his native country – if he wanted the job.

Officials have refused to reveal whether Kirsten is on the list of candidates due to be interviewed today and tomorrow.
