Duminy stepped down from his position on December 6, which was the result of a mutual agreement with the governing body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In March 2023, Duminy was appointed as the head coach for the white-ball team, as he was working under head coach Rob Walter. His appointment was the marker for the beginning of a new time period for South Africa as he came in after Mark Boucher got departed. As the governing  body confirmed the news, Cricket South Africa released an official statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;<strong><em>Cricket South Africa (CSA) announces that JP Duminy has stepped down from his role as the white-ball batting coach with immediate effect, following a mutual agreement with CSA based on personal reasons<\/em><\/strong>,&#8221; the statement read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;<strong><em>JP Duminy, a stalwart of South African cricket, has been a key member of the limited-overs coaching staff since his appointment in March 2023. His contributions to the growth and development of the batting department within the national white-ball setup have been invaluable<\/em><\/strong>,&#8221; the statement added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;<strong><em>CSA wishes Duminy all the best in his future endeavors and thanks him for his contributions to the Proteas Men\u2019s team during his tenure. A process to identify a suitable replacement is currently underway, and the appointment of a new white-ball batting coach will be announced in due course<\/em><\/strong>,&#8221; the statement concluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before he got assigned with the national team, Duminy served as the head coach of the SA20 side Paarl Royals, along with the domestic  side Boland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cricket South Africa will now undergo the process of finding a replacement for Duminy soon, even though it may not be possible to appoint a particular replacement in time for the upcoming series against Pakistan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cricket South Africa has announced releasing JP Duminy from his position as the coach with immediate effect for the white-ball
