Gary Stead to Depart as New Zealand Cricket Coach

Gary Stead, the head coach of the New Zealand cricket team, is leaving his job at the end of this month.

He's been the coach for seven years and helped the team win big tournaments, like the World Test Championship.

He also led them to finals in other competitions.

Stead has already stepped down as white-ball coach and will not renew his contract.

New Zealand Cricket is looking for a single coach to handle all formats of the game.

Stead is proud of what the team has accomplished, including historic wins and consistent performance, and he will continue working with the team this month.
