In an interesting development, former South African pacer Morne Morkel has been appointed as the bowling coach for the Indian men's cricket team, at the behest of chief coach Gautam Gambhir. This comes after months of speculation and uncertainty over who would fill the role. Morkel, who brings with him a wealth of experience as both a player and coach, is set to join the team in time for the upcoming home series against Bangladesh. His appointment is a significant one, given his strong working relationship with Gambhir and his impressive track record both on and off the field.
