Morne Morkel, the former South Africa fast bowler, has been appointed as the bowling coach of the Indian men's team.  After weeks of speculation, the signing was formally confirmed by BCCI secretary Jay Shah on Wednesday (14 August 2024)

Morkel replaced former India fast bowler Paras Mhambrey, and his appointment completes India's coaching staff, which comprises head coach Gautam Gambhir, assistant coaches Abhishek Nayar and Ryan ten Doeschate, and fielding coach T Dilip.

Morkel was Pakistan's bowling coach until last December.

His name was recommended by Gambhir, who worked with him for two seasons (2022-23) at Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL as well as at Durban Super Giants in the SA20.
