Darren Lehmann says he has no desire to return to coach Australia, despite previously indicating he would love to take on the role again.
Lehmann remained involved with cricket in a media capacity during the summer and last November revealed on Sydney radio station 2GB he would"love" to coach Australia again.
But upon his appointment as Heat coach for the next two BBL seasons, he admitted he no longer had a desire to coach Australia in a second stint. "No, I'm not travelling 300 days away again a year and I don't think my wife would let me either," said Lehmann, who coached Australia from 2013 to 2018. Lehmann said the ball-tampering saga had left him"hurt" but explained that rediscovering his enjoyment for cricket was the reason he wanted to return to coaching the Heat, the team he guided to the 2012/13 BBL title."So for me it's a case of really enjoying the game again. I went away and watched the game all summer, which was absolutely fantastic."
