Former Sri Lanka coach Dav Whatmore is set to take charge as the Director of Cricket at Baroda. Whatmore won the 1996 World Cup with Sri Lanka.
The 66-year-old has also coached Kerala, guiding them to their first-ever Ranji Trophy title in 2018/19.
"I will, obviously, coach the senior team. But apart from that, I will have to lay down a structure at the Under-19 and Under-23 levels to create a feeder system along with local coaches. It's a two-year contract, to begin with," Whatmore said, as quoted by ESPNCricinfo.
Whatmore parted ways with Kerala after the end of the last season of Ranji Trophy, where the side finished a poor 17th.
Whatmore has a vast international experience, having coached Zimbabwe, Bangladesh and Pakistan during his career as well
