Matthew Mott Named New Head Coach of Sydney Sixers Men's BBL Team
Matthew Mott has been appointed as the new head coach of the Sydney Sixers men's Big Bash League (BBL) team, signing a two-year contract. He replaces James Hopes, who left shortly after taking the role. Mott, previously the Sixers' Women's Big Bash League (WBBL) coach and a former England white-ball coach, will step down from the WBBL position. The club decided to keep separate coaches for the men's and women's teams to ensure stability, with a replacement for the WBBL role to be announced soon.
