Manchester Originals appoints Stephan Parry as Women’s Team Head Coach

Former England cricketer Stephan Parry has been appointed as the Head Coach of the Manchester Originals Women’s team. Parry has a paramount cricketing experience across domestic as well as international circuit and will truly justify his selection by yielding positive results.

Stephan Parry was born in Manchester and started to pursue professional cricket on his home turf. He eventually represented the Lancashire County Club and has a noteworthy record. Parry still holds the remarkable feat of being Lancashire’s leading wicket-taker in the T-20 format. The Left-Arm spinner has bagged 118 wickets with a bankable average of 24.88 and a career-best figure of 5/13 against Worcestershire.

Apart from an extraordinary domestic stint, Stephan Parry also has a short-lived but noteworthy contribution to England’s national cricket team. He has featured in five T-20I’s including three in World Cup and two ODI’s. Parry retired from professional cricket in 2020.

Stephan Parry’s appointment comes ahead of the stepping down of former head coach Paul Shaw. Paul Shaw had an amazing time with Manchester Originals and the side has grown tremendously under him. Parry will likely aim to continue the same momentum and help the side to seize the title.

Manchester Originals are delighted to appoint Stephan Parry as Head Coach

Addressing the media, General Manager of Manchester Originals Lee Morgan stated that the franchise is extremely delighted to appoint Stephan Parry as its upcoming head coach. Morgan also stated that the services of outgoing Shaw will truly be relinquished but Parry will likely fill the void space and provide justice to the position.

On the other side, Stephan Parry was also honored to ascend the throne and lead the Manchester Originals contingent. Parry stated that he will put in his dedicated efforts and provide his insightful experience to develop the women’s team. Manchester Originals will likely evolve as an exceptional team under Parry.
