Mumbai Indians Announce Appointment Of Lasith Malinga As Bowling Coach
Mumbai Indians have officially appointed former Sri Lanka pacer Lasith Malinga as their bowling coach, the Indian Premier League franchise said on Friday, promptly filling the void left by the departure of Shane Bond. The 40-year-old Malinga, who played for the five-time champions in his prime, will join the coaching team led by Mark Boucher and his former teammate Kieron Pollard ahead of the upcoming season. The franchise believed the three ex-cricketers will be "forging a strong partnership in the dugout." The erstwhile slinger has also served as the bowling coach for MI New York in Major League Cricket and MI Cape Town in SA20.
