Hobart Hurricanes head of strategy Ricky Ponting has appointed Jeff Vaughan as the Big Bash League franchise's new head coach having failed to land primary target Justin Langer.
Vaughan, the Tasmanian Tigers coach, will combine both roles after it was announced on Friday he'd signed a three-year deal to lead the Hurricanes as the replacement for Adam Griffith, who left the role after five seasons in January.
