Ottis Gibson arrives in South Africa on Monday and will hold his first media conference as the new Proteas coach on Tuesday morning.
There are, naturally, a lot of expectations with the World Cup in 2019 looming.
However, in anticipation of the former West Indian fast bowler’s arrival, Short Fine Legs – South Africa’s only cricket podcast – spoke to former Proteas coach Gary Kirsten on his appointment.
And it’s appropriate as Kirsten was on the Cricket South Africa panel that recommended Gibson for the post.
The Citizen’s cricket writer, Ken Borland, was also on hand to provide insights!
