Legendary fast bowler Wasim Akram is all set to come back as the bowling coach of Kolkata Knight Riders for the upcoming seventh edition of Indian Premier League after a hiatus of one year.
Akram had been the bowling coach of KKR for three successive seasons from 2010-12 with last season being the victorious one for the Shah Rukh Khan co-owned franchise.
"Akram has told us that his services would be available for the full length of the tournament this time," KKR CEO Venky Mysore told the mediapersons in a press conference here today.
