Drakes takes charge of UAE
Former West Indies allrounder Vasbert Drakes has been appointed as the new coach of the UAE cricket team.
"Drakes will replace Kabir Khan as the next coach,” said Mazhar Khan, the administrator of the Emirates Cricket Board. "Drakes will take charge of the team from May 10. He has been very successful as a coach after his playing days.”
Drakes, 38, will have a month to get the side ready before the Asia Cup in June.
