Sussex County Cricket Club: Nicholas Lee is set to take over as the new strength and conditioning coach of the Indian women's cricket team. Sources familiar with the matter told IANS that Lee is likely to join the Indian team after the 2026 season of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) is over on February 5 in Vadodara.

“Yes, it’s confirmed that Lee will be the new S&C coach of the Indian women’s cricket team. Australia’s Nathan Kiely was also in talks, but Lee was always in the running for this role. Once WPL is over, Lee will link up with the Indian team,” sources further said.

After the five-team WPL is over, India will play a multi-format series in Australia from February 15 to March 9. The multi-format tour begins with the T20I leg, starting at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) on February 15, followed by games at Manuka Oval, Canberra, and Adelaide Oval on February 19 and 21, respectively.
