Few days after stepping down as the head coach of the Australia cricket team, Darren Lehmann has landed himself a new coaching role with the country’s cricket board under National Performance Program. The 48-year-old, who had previously worked with National Cricket Centre before being associated with the national team, will work alongside former players Troy Cooley, Ryan Harris and Chris Rogers towards the development of the National Performance Squad (NPS). Confirming the news, Cooley revealed that he has had a discussion with Lehmann, who is keen to continue as a coach with Cricket Australia (CA). The former Australian head coach is expected to work in his new position until October. It’s also great experience for our coaches in ‘Ryno’ (Harris) and ‘Buck’ (Rogers), who are still learning their craft,” he said.
