KKR have named Chandrakant Pandit as their new head coach.
The IPL franchise Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) named Chandrakant Pandit as their new head coach on Thursday. Pandit, who has coached multiple domestic teams to success, recently led Madhya Pradesh to their first Ranji Trophy title. He takes over for Brendon McCullum.
Accepting the new challenge, Pandit said, “It’s a great honour and privilege to be given this responsibility. I have heard from players and others who
have been associated with the Knight Riders, about the family culture, as well as the tradition of success that has been created.”
“I am excited about the quality of the support staff and the players who are part of the set up and I am looking forward to this opportunity with all humility and positive expectations.”
“We are thrilled that Chandu has agreed to join the Knight Riders family to guide us through the next stage of our journey.” Everyone can see his deep commitment to what he does and his track record of success in domestic cricket. “We are looking forward to his collaboration with our skipper Shreyas Iyer, which promises to be exciting,” said KKR CEO Venky Mysore.
