Former South Africa: Former South Africa batter Andrew Puttick has been named as Afghanistan’s new batting coach, while Gordon Parsons, who played domestic cricket in England and South Africa, has been appointed as U19 team mentor, said the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB).
Puttick was a left-handed opening batter from Western Province in South Africa and scored his maiden first-class century in just his third first-class game. Puttick might have only played a solitary ODI match for South Africa, but he had a rich domestic career.
He featured in 173 first-class matches, 172 List A matches, and 83 T20 matches, scoring around 17000 runs, including 40 centuries and 85 fifties. Puttick has recently served as the batting coach of the Pakistan men’s team in 2023, including in Men’s ODI World Cup in India.
