Australia Assistant Coach Vettori Likely To Miss Perth Test Due To IPL Auction: Report
Lucknow Super Giants: Australia’s assistant coach Danniel Vettori is likely to miss the Border-Gavaskar Trophy first Test in Perth, starting from November 22, as the series opener is clashing with the IPL mega auction, scheduled on November 24 and 25 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Vettori, who’s the head coach of Sunrisers Hyderabad, will likely be in Saudi Arabia holding a paddle at the IPL’s mega player auction in Jeddah instead of being at Optus Stadium when the first Test reaches its conclusion, according to the report in Australian newspaper 'The Age'.
For Australia, the potential absence of Dan Vettori is particularly concerning. Vettori is an instrumental member of the Australian coaching setup and a trusted deputy of head coach Andrew McDonald.
