Shukri Conrad Praised As Ideal Choice For Proteas By Former Selector
In the wake of Rob Walter s shock resignation as Proteas white-ball coach earlier this week, it made a lot of sense for Shukri Conrad to take over.
Conrad, of course, has been immensely successful as the Test coach, as he was instrumental in helping the Proteas qualify for the World Test Championship final against Australia, scheduled to take place at Lords in June.
The different coach system for the formats, in fact, was an innovation that clearly has not seemed to work.
Having one coach for all three formats may be a traditional way of thinking, but it simply comes down to workload, believes former Proteas selector Hussein Manack.
Evaluating Conrads potential as South Africa's next all-format after Walters resignation'I think you would firstly look at Shukri, who's your Test coach. He would be the first person I would look at. Look at what he's achieved and how much is on his plate at the moment. Does he have the time? Manack told SportsBoom.co.za .
