Duminy, who had joined the Proteas side as their batting coach in March last year, has left his role with immediate effect following a mutual agreement, said the country’s cricket governing body (CSA).

"JP Duminy, a stalwart of South African cricket, has been a key member of the limited-overs coaching staff since his appointment in March 2023,” CSA said in a post on X.

"His contributions to the growth and development of the batting department within the national white-ball setup have been invaluable," it added.

In a 15-year career between 2004 and 2019, Duminy played 46 Tests, 199 ODIs and 81 T20Is for South Africa.

"A process to identify a suitable replacement is currently underway, and the appointment of a new white-ball batting coach will be announced in due course," CSA further stated.
