NEW DELHI, May 20 (AFP): Former West Indies all-rounder Phil Simmons will step down as Afghanistan coach after the cricket World Cup, saying his goal had been reached by taking the minnows to the 50-over showpiece.
Simmons, who took over in December 2017, said he will not renew his contract after the World Cup in England and Wales.
"I have thought about it and I have actually given the ACB (Afghanistan Cricket Board) my notice that I will not be renewing my contract," Simmons told ESPNcricinfo.
"I will move on to something different once my contract expires on July 15."
