Gary Stead Steps Away From NZ's White Ball Coaching, Mulling Over Test Future
Cricket World Cup Final: New Zealand head coach Gary Stead has confirmed his decision to step away from the white ball formats and will decide in the next few weeks if he wishes to reapply for the role of Test coach.
New Zealand’s most successful coach, Stead was first appointed to the position in 2018 following the resignation of Mike Hesson, and has twice had his contract renewed: in 2020, and in 2023 – the latter term expiring in June this year.
"While still considering his options in terms of the Test position, Stead who steered Nee Zealand to the inaugural World Test Championship title in 2021, and to an unprecedented 3-nil Test series sweep of India on the sub-continent last year, has formally signalled his intention to step down from ODI and T20I role," New Zealand Cricket said in a release.
