Ricky Ponting remains keen on taking up coaching opportunities in the Indian Premier League following his exit from Delhi Capitals, revealing that the franchise is likely to replace him with an Indian coach.


Ponting, who left his role as Delhi Capitals’s head coach last month after a seven-year stint, acknowledged that the lack of silverware led to his exit from the IPL side. “I’d love to coach again in the IPL.

“What you’ll find is that they’ll probably end up with an Indian-based head coach. Certainly that’s some of the dialogue that I’ve had with them anyway,” he said.
