Kenya have appointed New Zealander Michael Hesson as the new national cricket coach, officials said on Tuesday.
The Dunedin-born Hesson, 36, is widely regarded as one of the best young coaches in the game, having been involved in coaching the New Zealand A side and the Otago Volts provincial team for six years.
His appointment follows an exhaustive recruitment process, started after Kenya’s dismal performance at the last cricket World Cup, which led to the resignation of the former coach Eldine Baptiste and the sacking of four senior players.
