Shane Bond has a lot of experience working

Bond has a lot of experience working as a coach for Sydney Thunder in the Big Bash League, Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League, New Zealand A, and the women’s team. “Shane has been in our environment before, understands what we’re about,” Stead said.

Plan your tournament with spin and fast bowlers

“Being in the United Arab Emirates (along with the IPL) just before the T20 World Cup…he will bring some tactical insight into what’s happening in the competition. He especially works around the bowlers. Developing their plans with spin and fast bowlers and in tournaments that go very fast – hence the need to stay one step ahead of the other teams.
