It's official. Former South African opener Gary Kirsten will occupy the hot seat of coach of Indian cricket team, a year after Australian Greg Chappell had stepped down from the post following the team's debacle in the World Cup in the West Indies .
Kirsten, 40, said he had conveyed his acceptance of the offer made by the Board of Control for Cricket in India to be the coach.
He said his two-year contract as coach would begin from March one next year.
Kirsten said he would, however, be joining the Indian team possibly in the middle of its tour of Australia, starting later this month, as a consultant.
