Kolkata Knight Riders on Sunday decided to change its head coach Jacques Kallis and assistant coach Simon Katich following a disappointing fifth place finish in the Indian Premier League this season.
“Jacques Kallis has been an integral part of the KKR family and will always remain so. We will be exploring ways of working with Jacques as we pursue our vision of establishing the Knight Rider brand as a global brand,” KKR CEO Venky Mysore said in a statement on its website.
Mysore also added that the changes included Simon Katich, who was the assistant coach. Their replacements will be named shortly.
