England head coach Trevor Bayliss to take charge of Sunrisers Hyderabad

Outgoing England head coach Trevor Bayliss will take charge of Indian Premier League franchise Sunrisers Hyderabad from next year.

Bayliss had long ago signalled his intention to end his four-year tenure with England after the end of the forthcoming Ashes series, when his contract expires.

Despite leading England to World Cup glory last weekend, the Australian has not had a change of heart and he will replace Tom Moody at the helm of Sunrisers, who have England wicketkeeper-batsman Jonny Bairstow in their ranks.

Sunrisers said in a statement on their official Twitter account: "Trevor Bayliss, England's 2019 World Cup winning coach, has been appointed head coach of Sunrisers Hyderabad."
