Rajasthan Royals on Friday announced the appointment of Steffan Jones as the franchise's High-Performance Fast Bowling Coach ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022. The 48-year-old former pacer from Wales had previously served as the team's fast bowling coach in 2019.
As part of his new role, Jones will be responsible for providing high-quality training, guidance and support to all bowlers who are part of the Royals' set-up throughout the year, with a focus on the off-season and in the build-up to the IPL season, a media release
stated.
Jones will be working with the team during their pre-season camp to be held from March 7 to 10 at the Royals’ High-Performance Centre in Nagpur, a post where he will remain with the squad, helping the bowlers prepare for the upcoming season.
"I am delighted to be returning to the Rajasthan Royals and grateful to the management for giving me the opportunity to work with the team again. With a plethora of talented bowlers in our ranks, I'm looking forward to working with them around the year and preparing them to peak and excel when the season comes," Jones said.
