New Zealand Cricket (NZC) has today announced the appointment of former BLACKCAPS strike bowler Shane Bond as BLACKCAPS Bowling Coach.
NZC Director of Cricket, John Buchanan, said he was thrilled to have a coach of such impressive credentials joining the BLACKCAPS coaching staff.
“Shane’s international record speaks for itself and in recent years he has developed into a highly skilled coach and mentor,” said Buchanan.
“The BLACKCAPS have some very important cricket coming up and we are delighted to have Shane on board to help develop and prepare our international bowling attack.
“His knowledge of the modern game will be a valuable asset to the team and he has the skillset to complement Mike Hesson and Bob Carter.”
Bond said it was an honor to be working with the BLACKCAPS and is excited by what lies ahead.
“This is a role I have worked towards since I stopped playing,” said Bond. “I've enjoyed a range of coaching experiences around both men's and women's teams alongside some very good coaches and feel I'm ready to add something to the team.
“The experience of playing for New Zealand exceeded my expectations and I'm sure it will be no different as a coach. I'm really excited about working with the team.
“I’m looking forward to being back involved at the highest level and the challenge of coaching on the international stage.”
Bond will join the BLACKCAPS on their upcoming tour of Sri Lanka.
