IPL 2022: Shane Watson has been named as DC’s assistant coach.
Meanwhile, this week, the 2020 finalists named Shane Watson as their assistant coach for the upcoming season. He’ll work as a coach alongside former Australian teammates Ricky Ponting and James Hopes. Meanwhile, Rishabh Pant will take charge of the team once more, and all eyes will be on him. After all, the wicketkeeper-batter has recently been on a roll.
Aside from the southpaw, the Delhi-based franchise kept Prithvi Shaw, Axar Patel, and Anrich Nortje. Because of the mega auction, the team had to let go of some big names, including Shreyas Iyer, Shikhar Dhawan, Marcus Stoinis, and Kagiso Rabada. They have, however, signed David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, and Kuldeep Yadav.
Meanwhile, the IPL 2022 is shaping up to be a spectacular event, with two new teams – the Lucknow Super Giants and the Gujarat Titans – joining the fray. As a result, for the first time since the 2011 season, a total of ten teams will compete for the prestigious title.
