Christchurch: New Zealand Cricket’s long-serving high-performance coach Bob Carter will be stepping away from his role of 21 years, New Zealand Cricket said on Friday.
Formerly a player and then director of cricket for the English county Northamptonshire, Carter’s tenure at NZC filled roles as the assistant to John Bracewell’s 2004-2009 BlackCaps, the assistant to Mike Hesson’s 2012-14 (men’s team), and the women’s team head coach ahead of, and during, the 2022 ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup in New Zealand.
“The man who joined NZC as the assistant BlackCaps coach in 2004 is poised to depart the organisation’s high-performance centre in Lincoln some 21 years later, having been heavily involved in the evolution of both the national men’s and women’s games,” NZC said in a statement.
Carter said that, after two decades at Lincoln it was time for a change, and he was looking forward to continuing his work in cricket as an independent contractor. IANS
