SYDNEY:
Former Australian paceman Jason Gillespie has been appointed as an assistant coach for Australia A’s tour of Zimbabwe this month. Gillespie, who captured 259 Test wickets for Australia in a 10-year career, will support head coach Troy Cooley on the month-long tour. Gillespie, 36, joins former Test players Justin Langer, Darren Lehmann and Craig McDermott in national and state level coaching roles. “This Australia A tour allows me to further dip my toe into the elite coaching system, to work with some of the best young cricket talent and to learn from experienced bowling coaches like Cooley,” said Gillespie.
