In an interview with Timesnownews.com, Kirsten speaks up about his experience coaching teams in the IPL. Also, he revealed his observations from his strategies as a coach with the Indian Premier League teams.
“Coaching is very different in the IPL than in any other environment. I’m really enjoying coaching in T20 cricket which requires a different set of skills compared to working with an international team. I think the most successful IPL coaches have been able to create continuity with their playing squad. The relationship between the coach and the owner and the systems they co-create is vital to sustainable success,” Gary Kirsten said.
