NewzFormer New Zealand cricketer Shane Bond has been dismissed as head coach of the Birmingham Phoenix after completing only one season of his two-year contract. The decision follows a challenging campaign in The Hundred, where the team endured a seven-match losing streak under his leadership.
Bond, a former Black Cap, was appointed to the role with the expectation of a multi-year tenure. His departure marks a premature end to his time with the franchise following the team's poor performance during the recent tournament.
