RCB Appoint Anya Shrubsole As Bowling Coach, Malolan Rangarajan To Take Over As Head Coach For WPL 2026: Report
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) have appointed former England fast bowler Anya Shrubsole as their new bowling coach as part of a reshuffle in their support staff ahead of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2026 season.
Shrubsole, a 2017 ODI World Cup winner with England, will join RCB’s setup for the first time and work alongside Malolan Rangarajan, who has been promoted to the role of head coach for the upcoming season. The changes come after Luke Williams, RCB’s head coach during the 2024 and 2025 campaigns, was ruled out of the season due to his commitments with Adelaide Strikers in the Big Bash League (BBL).
According to a report by ESPNcricinfo, the WPL has been advanced by a month, now set to run from January 8 to early February 2026, creating a scheduling clash for Williams. India is scheduled to co-host the Men’s T20 World Cup with Sri Lanka in the February-March window, followed by IPL 2026, prompting the rescheduling.
