JP Duminy resigns as South Africa's white-ball batting coach
What's the story
Former international cricketer JP Duminy has stepped down as South Africa's white-ball batting coach for personal reasons.
Duminy was appointed in March 2023, during Rob Walter's time, as Cricket South Africa (CSA) was moving toward a new coaching team after the Mark Boucher era.
Duminy had previously been head coach of SA20 team Paarl Royals and domestic side Boland.
Coaching career
Duminy's coaching journey and future plans
Duminy was a part of the white-ball team's journey to the 2023 ODI World Cup semi-final.
However, he had to leave the camp ahead of this year's ICC T20 World Cup in USA and Caribbean for personal reasons.
It remains to be seen if he will continue his coaching career anytime soon.
In September, Duminy was appointed as head coach of International League T20 (ILT20) side Sharjah Warriorz.
Replacement hunt
CSA's search for Duminy's replacement
Following Duminy's departure, CSA will start looking for a new white-ball batting coach.
However, it remains to be seen if they can find a suitable candidate in time for the upcoming series against Pakistan.
The series starts with three T20Is, followed by three ODIs as part of ICC Champions Trophy preparation.
If a full-time candidate isn't found, CSA might look at their batting lead Imraan Khan as an interim solution.
