World T20 to be former Test quick's final campaign, following Michael Di Venuto out of Australian team

Cricket Australia has announced assistant coach Craig McDermott will leave his post following this month's ICC World T20 tournament.

McDermott, the former Test quick who began his second coaching stint with Australia in 2013, will return home to focus on his cricket academy, which has bases throughout Queensland and New South Wales.

"Looking ahead I’ve decided that the time is right to really focus on my academy business which is continuing to grow as well as pursuing some other business opportunities I have away from the game. And if time presents, I’ll also look at some coaching consultancy work in various competitions around the world.

Last time he quit our bowling went to shit

 

[Belnakor]

the property market has rebounded up in QLD so i'm figuring he has managed to get back on his feet.

 

[Ok Boomer]

Doesn't he quit like every 2 years, then comes back?

 

[The Casey Cat]

This is worrying.

 

[Truckosaurus]

As long as whoever replaces him isn't as preoccupied with bowling short as the guy we got the last time he quit.

Ryan Harris?

I'd like to see them get kaspar in the mix. But he needs to leave his position on cricket Aus board to do so

Being a bowling coach would have to be the easiest job going around.

I look forward to the announcement of Big Bryza as the new Australia bowling coach.

Yeah so easy they haven't found a decent one since they thought England having one in the 05 ashes was the reason they won that ashes

He is probably sick to death of having to watch his bowlers bowl on roads, wasting his time. Johnson gave it away for the same reason.
Who would want to be a bowler now. Just cannon fodder.

Can we find someone who can advise players not to put their foot over the big white line when they deliver the ball?

That is more aa Pattoman problem than anything else

First ever playing coach.

1. Pitch it up
2. Bowl fast
3. Keep at least part of your foot behind the line
4. Pitch it up

Where do I apply?

He'll be back in 2018 to lead the troops again
