Mike Hesson to coach the Kiwis - Cricket News update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/New-South-Wales-c823 coach, Matthew Mott, in the final round of interviews, which took place this week. Hesson had represented Otago’s second
XI and became the youngest person in New Zealand to attain NZC’s level three coaching in 1998.
The 37-year-old had earlier cited security reasons as an underlying factor which influenced his decision to stop coaching Kenya. Kenya had a disastrous exit from the 2011 Cricket World Cup in the subcontinent held from February to April, where they failed
to register a single win. Hesson had been credited for coaching the Kenyan Cricket Team during a pay dispute between the players and the board. Prior to seeking a contract with Kenya, he had coached the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Otago-c829 Volts for about six years.
Upon selection, Hesson has been handed a contract to coach the Kiwis till the 2015 World Cup, which takes place in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/John-Geoffrey-Wright-c67883 was involved in
a brawl with http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Matthew-Mott-c1928 and Trent Woodhill, who missed out on securing a place. Buchanan hailed Hesson’s credentials
and considered him to be the ideal man to lead New Zealand in light of the Black Cap’s recent slump in ODI cricket.
"We were impressed with the way Mike presented himself and he was the stand-out applicant from a strong field of candidates," said http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Buchanan-c48808.
Hesson’s successful first class career as a coach is also cited by Buchanan as one of the reasons why he is considered to be the most apt coach for the Kiwi side. The Black Caps are currently languishing at 8th in the ICC rankings and have recently
succumbed to a 4-1 defeat to a beleaguered http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758, in September.
New Zealand has never moved pass the group stages since the inaugural tournament took place in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755. New Zealand has
reached the semi finals of the world cup six times since 1975, yet have failed to win any major global tournament. Their only world tournament success came in the 2000 Knock Out Trophy in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Kenya-c752.
