Jason Gillespie, Brad Haddin and Chris Rogers to share coaching duties for Australia's A team

Melbourne: Former test stalwarts Jason Gillespie, Brad Haddin and Chris Rogers will share coaching duties for Australia A`s tour of South Africa in July and August, Cricket Australia said on Friday.

Gillespie, who oversaw Yorkshire`s back-to-back titles in 2014-15, will lead the coaching staff with support from former Australia wicketkeeper Haddin and top order batsman Rogers, who both retired after the 2015 Ashes defeat in England.

Australia A will play the South African and Indian A sides in two four-day matches and a one-day tri-series.

"While the squad has yet to be named, it will no doubt feature some of the country`s most talented players, and players challenging for the opportunity to play international cricket for Australia," Gillespie said on Cricket Australia`s website.
