Hasaranga joins RCB, Katich steps down as head coach

Sri Lanka leg-spinner Wanindu Hasaranga, who played a pivotal role in his team’s T20I series win against India recently, has been picked by Royal Challengers Bangalore for the Indian Premier League Phase 2 in the United Arab Emirates.
Besides picking World No.2 T20I bowler Hasaranga, who replaced Adam Zampa, RCB roped in Sri Lanka pacer Dushmantha Chameera to occupy the place vacated by Daniel Sams. Big Bash sensation Tim David will come in as replacement for Finn Allen.

The franchise also informed that its head coach Simon Katich has stepped down from his post due to personal reasons and said that director of cricket Mike Hesson would now double up as the team’s chief coach too.
