In preparation for IPL 2020, former Zimbabwean captain Andy Flower becomes the newly appointed assistant coach of the Kings XI Punjab.
As the IPL 2020 draws near, the teams are having preparations for the prestigious league tournaments for the IPL championship. With that, the Kings XI Punjab had appointed the well-experienced Andy Flower to be the team’s assistant coach for this season.
Flower had replaced Sunil Joshi who was newly appointed to be the chairman of the senior men’s national side. As the new assistant coach, Flower will work hand in hand with former Men in Blue captain Anil Kumble to coach the team.
