Albie Morkel Appointed As New Head Coach Of Joburg Super Kings For SA20
Joburg Super Kings: Former South Africa all-rounder Albie Morkel has been appointed as the new head coach of Joburg Super Kings ahead of the upcoming season of the SA20. He steps into the top role after Stephen Fleming left the Super Kings franchise earlier this month and will take charge as England’s Test cricket coach.
Morkel represented South Africa in one Test, 58 ODIs, and 50 T20Is from 2004 to 2015. Over a prolific T20 career spanning 319 matches, he scored more than 4,000 runs and claimed nearly 250 wickets. Apart from representing the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the Indian Premier League (IPL), Morkel has been an integral part of the Joburg Super Kings coaching setup since the franchise's inception in the SA20.
"It is an incredible honour to be appointed Head Coach of the Joburg Super Kings. From wearing the Super Kings jersey as a player to now leading one of its franchises as Head Coach, this journey is truly special. I look forward to building on the strong foundations we've created together and helping this group achieve its full potential," Morkel said in a statement by the franchise on Thursday.
