Former Test wicketkeeper Mark Boucher Appointed Head Coach of South Africa's Cricket Team


Former Test wicketkeeper Mark Boucher has been named as South Africa's new head coach on a four-year deal.

The 43-year-old replaces Enoch Nkwe, who was interim team director after head coach Ottis Gibson was released in August and is now the assistant coach.

The appointment comes three days after former Test captain Graeme Smith was named acting director of cricket.

"I feel Mark will bring the toughness to turn an inexperienced squad into a battle-ready outfit," Smith said.

Mark Boucher's tenure begins with a four-match Test series against England, which starts on  Dec 26,2019 in Centurion.
