Big Bash League: Yorkshire have appointed former Australia pacer Mick Lewis as the men’s first-team bowling coach. Lewis joins from Essex where he worked closely with Yorkshire head coach, Anthony McGrath.

"Lewis joins on a three-year contract ahead of the 2025 season and will be in post, ready for the squad’s pre-season tour to Abu Dhabi in March," the county club said in a statement on Monday.

Before his time at Chelmsford with Essex, Lewis was the head bowling coach at state side Victoria, where he enjoyed success with four Sheffield Shield titles. He also had stints in the Big Bash League (BBL) with both the Melbourne Stars and Renegades.
