Former first-class cricketer Sanath Kumar was Wednesday re-appointed as the Baroda head coach for the the next two seasons, said an official from the Baroda Cricket Association (BCA).

“(The) committee appointed in the last Managing Committee meeting, telephonically reviewed and had short- listed 4-5 coaches and finally considering few important parameters selected Sanath Kumar as the head coach for BCA for two seasons 2019-20 and 2020-21,” BCA joint secretary Snehal Parikh said in a note, a copy of which is available with PTI.

The association also decided to appoint Afzal Khan as the head trainer for the Baroda team.
